This is a healthy and simple fry with sweet potatoes. To be honest, I am not a big fan of sweet potatoes and was stumped when I ended up with two huge potatoes. To my surprise, the potatoes were not sweet as I had feared it to be and the fry tasted pretty good. Green chillies add a lot of heat to the dish and I went overboard just to mask the sweetness. Overall a perfect side to rice. Off to the recipe.
