We had this on NFL Kick-Off Sunday for dinner and found these super-simple treasures to be a real 'keeper'. Unfortunately, we mated this with the wrong dip, but that doesn't decrease the Star Status of this dish! Give this one a try and see if you don't agree that this is a great alternative to to 'plain old potato chips'... and they're healthy too.

What you'll need:
- 2 (about 1 3/4 pounds) sweet potatoes or yams scrubbed clean
- 2 quarts canola oil for deep-frying
- coarse salt to taste
With a mandolin or knife cut the potatoes into 1/16-inch slices and pat them dry with paper towels.
In a deep fryer or cast iron Dutch Oven. heat enough oil to measure 2-4 inches to 380°F and in it fry the potato slices in batches, turning them, until they are golden brown.
Transfer the chips with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain and sprinkle them with the salt.
