Why suitable for low histanmine diet

Sweet potatoes and rosemary are extremely low in histamines and are unlikely to provoke histamine release, making this dish a safe appetizer option for those on a low-histamine diet. Moreover, olive oil is used instead of butter, providing a source of healthy fats without the histamines found in dairy products.

Instructions

0Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
1Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into long, thin strips about 1/4 inch in thickness.
2In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, chopped rosemary, salt, and pepper.
3Add the sweet potato strips to the bowl and toss until they're evenly coated in the oil and seasoning mixture.
4Spread the sweet potato fries out in an even layer on your prepared baking sheet, making sure they're not overlapping.
5Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping once halfway through to ensure they crisp up evenly.
6Remove from the oven once the fries are golden brown and crispy. Let cool for a few minutes before serving.

Tipps

Evenly Cut Your Sweet Potatoes

Make sure to cut your sweet potatoes into even strips. This ensures they all cook at the same rate, preventing any from burning or being undercooked.

Avoid Crowding the Baking Sheet

Spread the fries out in a single layer on your baking sheet, with a little space between each one. If they're too close together, they'll steam instead of crisping up.

Cook Time May Vary

Everyone's oven is a little different. Start checking the fries around the 15-minute mark to make sure they don't burn. They should be golden brown and crispy when done.

Serve with a Low-Histamine Dip

Although ketchup is a traditional partner for fries, it contains tomatoes which are high in histamines. Consider serving these fries with a homemade dip made from low-histamine ingredients, like a garlic and olive oil aioli.
