Cinnamon-Spiced Sweet Potato Fries

Lee Stoetzel, Hard Fries (After Oldenburg), 2009. Mahogany and maple veneer, plywood (container), spalted maple (fries, )40 x 20 x 36 inches.

Cinnamon-Spiced Sweet Potato Fries
1 large sweet potato, peeled and cut into thick sticks
1 1/4 cups white sugar
3 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons ground nutmeg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups vegetable oil for deep frying
4 teaspoons butter

For a slightly healthier version, cut the sugar measurement in half; coat sliced sweet potatoes with egg whites before rolling them in the sugar mixture; and bake.

Four new sculptures by Lee Stoetzel are on view at Mixed Greens through May 23. The exhibition comprises four pieces of "Oldenburgian" proportion: a single-speed bicycle, a Chuck Close catalog, a replica of gutters and leaves, and the McDonald’s fries pictured above.
