Instructions

Make your Sweet Potato Fries
1

a) Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. Chop the sweet potatoes lengthways into 1cm slices, then chop into 1cm wide fries (no need to peel).

b) Pop the fries onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, sprinkle over half the smoked paprika and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.

c) When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until golden, 25-30 mins. Turn halfway through.

Make the Baconnaise
2

a) Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a medium frying pan on medium-high heat.

b) Once hot, add the bacon lardons. Stir-fry until golden, 4-5 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw meat. Cook bacon thoroughly.

c) Once cooked, remove the pan from the heat and add the remaining smoked paprika. Stir to combine, then transfer to a small bowl and allow to cool, 10-15 mins.

d) Once cooled, add the mayonnaise to the bacon lardons. Mix to combine, then set aside your baconnaise for serving.

Review summary

Updated on Feb 2026
  • Flavour: The smoky sweet potato fries were generally enjoyed, though some found the baconnaise disappointing.
  • Ease of prep: Preparation was described as "a bit of a faff", but ultimately worthwhile for the tasty result.
  • Suggestions: Consider using an air fryer for crispier fries. Add more paprika to boost the flavour of the chips.
  • Portions: Several reviewers noted the portion size was smaller than expected, particularly for sharing.
