I also have a recipe for them, that TammyM posted for me about 2 years
ago.

Oven-Baked Sweet Potato Fries

1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 large (about 1 1/2 pounds) sweet potatoes

Prepare the sweet potatoes: In a small bowl, combine cumin, salt, and
pepper. Set aside. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Peel potatoes, cut
each in half lengthwise, and cut each half into 6 wedges. In a large
bowl, combine the cut potatoes, oil, and spice mixture. Toss until
potatoes are evenly coated.

Bake the fries: On a baking sheet, arrange potatoes in a single layer
and place on the middle shelf of the oven. Bake until edges are crisp
and potatoes are cooked through -- about 30 minutes. Serve
immediately.
