International Produce

Roasted Sunchokes “Fries”

About the Recipe

Ingredients

To avoid discoloration, make sure not to cook sunchoke in aluminum or iron.
Sunchoke has a nutty and subtly sweet flavor. It tastes like a blend of jicama and a potato.
The peel is edible. You can eat this blanched, baked, steamed, roasted, boiled, or raw.

Directions

Preheat oven to 450°F.
Scrub the sunchokes with a potato brush and chop into 1-inch, bite-sized chunks.
Toss in a medium sized bowl with olive oil, salt and pepper until coated.
Place onto a baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes, turning once, until the skin is slightly browned.
Sprinkle with fresh parsley. Serve plain or with a side of ketchup.
