    When I made these i thought they would be delicious. However after 20 minutes of baking I was very disappointed. I tried soaking them in water to get rid of the starch like someone mentioned (and of course i dried it and i put it in the oven. After baking, half of them were burnt and the other half were half burnt. They were limp and slightly on the disgusting side. I will never, ever make these again.

    The trick to get any potato crispy is to get the starch out of them. What I do is microwave until they are 85% done. let cool then cut into fries and bake. There is also a way to soak them to remove the extra starch. Try using left over baked potatoes too. they make great fries and hash browns... crisp right up.

    After reading all the reviews to make a crispier fry I decided to try something a little different...and it seem to help. Preheat a stoneware baking sheet in the oven to 475. Drop the fries on the hot stone. Reduce the heat to 450 for 20 min. My family loved them. The fries were tasty and crispy.

    I sliced my sweet potato into rounds with a food processor like home fries instead of cutting them into the normal strips and since they are thinner they crisp up a little better and heating the pan ahead of time really helps as suggested earlier. The flavor was great and dipping them in ranch adds a yummy kick!

    These tasted pretty good, but the consistency of them was terrible. They might as well have been baby food. I love paula, but these need a new name...fries they are not.

    Here's a little tip I got from a Tyler Florence show...put your pans in the oven before you put the potatoes on them. This way, they start to cook as soon as they hit the pan, and crisp up better. I don't think you'll ever get the absolute crisp of white potatoes, but they do get crisper than with a cold pan. I always line my pans with foil for easier cleanup, and it works well with this method, too. Good Luck with the crispy!

    Seems like many on Foodnetwork have their own version of this one, but I tried Paula's first. I loved her seasonings against the natural sweetness of the potatoes. I'll definitely make this again.
