Rutabaga Fries

rutabaga/swede

olive oil

smoked paprika

salt

black pepper

Preheat the oven to 390°F (200°C).

You can either peel the rutabaga using a potato peeler or a paring knife. Once that is done, slice the rutabaga in half and then in ¼-inch disks. Then take each disk and slice it into fries as shown in step 2 below.

Scatter the rutabaga fries on a sheet pan, drizzle with olive oil, and season with paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss so that everything is well coated, and arrange in a single layer.

Roast in the oven for 30-40 minutes, or until they're golden brown and fluffy from the inside.

Keto French Fries with Rutabaga

Rutabagas (medium size, about 28 oz or turnip)

Extra Virgin Olive Oil (or avocado oil)

Ground Smoked Paprika (up

Garlic Powder

(adjust

Preheat the oven to 430°F (220°C). Lay a large baking tray with parchment paper. Set aside.

Wash the rutabaga, peel off the thick skin, and using a sharp knife remove both ends. Discard.

Cut the rutabagas into 1/4 inch matchsticks. The easiest way is first to cut slices and then cut each slice into sticks of 1/4 inches. Set aside in a large mixing bowl.

In a small mixing bowl, combine olive oil, salt, garlic powder, and paprika. Pour onto the bowl with fries.

Toss the rutabagas matchsticks with your hands or a spoon until all fries are evenly covered.

Arrange the fries onto the baking tray, leaving half an inch of space between each fry.

Bake the fries for 30-40 minutes or until the center of the fries has softened.

Turn the oven to broil mode and broil for 5-10 minutes to add a light crisp to the fries.

Note that these fries must be enjoyed straight away as they soften fast.

Enjoy with a sauce of your choice or my ketchup recipe.

Store leftover in a sealed container in the fridge and rewarm in 400°F (200°C) oven for 5-10 minutes.

Storage

Thank you for bringing rutabagas to life! Most people here in the US have no clue what they are. I love them! They are different than turnips I that turnips have a stronger flavor. The flesh of a rutabaga is more yellow, where turnips are white.  I usually have to point out the code on the sheets for the cashiers. They don’t know what they are, either! But, they are scrumptious. Mash them like potatoes. So good!!
