## Ingredients
- 2 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 4 hoagie buns
- 1 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 3/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 1/2 lbs ground chuck (15% fat)
- 1 medium yellow onion (diced)
- 8 slices American cheese (or favorite cheese)
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 2 cups shredded lettuce
- 8 slices tomatoes
## Augmentations
- Saute the onions and mix them into the ground beef
## Instructions
### Step 1
Dice yellow onion, slice tomatoes, and shred lettuce. Set aside until needed.
### Step 2
Spread 1/2 tablespoon of butter on the inside of each hoagie roll. Grill in a large skillet until golden brown. Plate until needed.
### Step 3
Divide the meat into four 6-ounce portions and shape each portion into an oval. Season generously on both sides with salt and pepper. Place one portion into a hot cast-iron skillet and smash with the back of a spatula (similar to smash burgers). Cook over medium high heat for a few minutes.
### Step 4
Flip the flattened patty to the other side and top with a quarter of the diced onions. Now begin chopping the burger patty as you mix in the onions. Continue doing this for a few minutes until the meat has crispy edges and the onions are grilled.
### Step 5
Top meat with 2 American cheese slices. Turn off the heat and allow the cheese to melt.
### Step 6
Slather mayo and ketchup on the toasted hoagy roll. Add the patty and top with shredded lettuce and sliced tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper and serve.
## Notes
- The sandwich needs to be wrapped in parchment paper to lock in flavor.
- Onions can be grilled if you desire.

### Step 2
Add carrots & peas, cook until heated and softened.

Add rice (and protein if using) continue to cook until rice slightly crisped and brown. Dont stir too much, you do want to get a little bit of caramelization.

Garnish with remaining green onion and sesame seeds if desired.

title: "Sweet Potato Fries"

Prep Time: **15 minutes**
Cook Time: **40 minutes**
Servings: **6 - 8**
Original Link: [Link]([https://www....](https://cookieandkate.com/baked-sweet-potato-fries/))
## Ingredients
- 2 pounds sweet potatoes (about 2 medium-large or 3 medium)
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- Optional spices: freshly ground black pepper, cayenne pepper and/or garlic powder
## Instruction
### Step 1
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit with racks in the lower and upper thirds of the oven (make sure the top rack is about 6″ from the heat source and no closer). Line two large, rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper so the fries dont get stuck to the pans.
### Step 2
Peel the sweet potatoes and cut them into fry-shaped pieces about ¼″ wide and ¼″ thick. Try to cut them into similarly sized pieces so the fries will bake evenly. Transfer half of the uncooked fries to one baking sheet, and the other half to the other baking sheet.
### Step 3
Sprinkle the sweet potato fries with the cornstarch (use 1 ½ teaspoons per pan) and salt (¼ teaspoon per pan). Toss until the fries are lightly coated in powder. Drizzle the olive oil over the fries (1 tablespoon per pan) and toss until the fries are lightly and evenly coated in oil, and no powdery spots remain (use your fingers to rub visible cornstarch into the fries as necessary).
### Step 4
Arrange your fries in a single layer and dont overcrowd; otherwise they will never crisp up. Bake for 20 minutes, then flip the fries so they can cook on all sides. (The easiest way to flip them is with a metal spatula. Section by section, scoop up about ten fries and flip them with a quick turn of the wrist.)
### Step 5
Arrange the fries in even layers across the pans again, moving any particularly browned fries more toward the middle of the pan so they dont get overcooked. Return the pans to the oven, swapping their positions (former top pan goes to the lower rack and vice versa).
### Step 6
Bake for 10 to 18 more minutes, or until the fries are crispy. Youll know theyre almost done when the surface of the fries change from shiny orange to a more matte, puffed up texture. Keep an eye on them, as they can turn from crisp to burnt quickly. Sometimes the lower pan will be done a few minutes before the top pan. Dont worry if the edges are a little bit brown; they will taste more caramelized than burnt.
### Step 7
If desired, toss the baked fries with seasonings, to taste. I like to use lots of freshly ground black pepper, and a scant ¼ teaspoon each cayenne pepper and garlic powder. Serve warm!
