Ingredients
  • 1 large yam, washed, peeled, and sliced into long fries
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • ½ tsp oregano
  • 2 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Optional: Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (or air fryer to 375°F).
Place the sliced yam fries in a large bowl and toss them with olive oil until evenly coated.
Sprinkle the cornstarch over the fries and toss to create a light coating.
Add Italian seasoning, oregano, Parmesan, and any optional salt and pepper, then toss again to ensure the fries are evenly seasoned.
Spread the fries in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet (or in the air fryer basket).
Bake for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through, or air fry for 15–18 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
Serve immediately with your favorite dip.
