Rutabaga Fries

  • 1 large rutabaga (about the size of a large russet potato)
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • 3 Tbsp tallow, lard, or coconut oil
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon dried thyme
  • dash of cayenne pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425 F.
  2. Peel rutabaga and slice into fries (This mandolin makes quick work of it, but a good knife will work, too.)
  3. On a large sheet pan, toss remaining ingredients together (If fat/oil is solid, put the pan in the oven for a few minutes until melted. Then toss to coat rutabaga evenly.)
  4. Roast for 20-30 minutes on the BOTTOM RACK of the oven, turning once to ensure even cooking.
  5. Fries are done when lightly browned and crisp around the edges.
