Both salty and sweet and crisp on the outside with an underlying hint of rosemary. When you have a hankering for some steak fries, these delicious sweet potatoes will not disappoint. A quick 8 minutes of simple knife work and these potatoes are ready to roast, leaving plenty of time to add a few grilled filets or a large cut like flank steak. Roasted chicken will also shine against these stunners. You can easily substitute russet potatoes for sweet or use a combination for a great looking and diversely flavored dish. Use any fresh herb in place of rosemary if you have some handy.
