- In a separate skillet, sauté the sweet potato cubes until they are just tender. Set aside & then sautee your thin onion slices until golden brown and soft. Set aside until assemble your salad.
- First boil your potatoes (for fries) for 2-3 minutes, completely dry and then double fry them in a pot of oil (taking out in between frying twice). Season well after second fry. *Full instructions in recipe for making fries in my “Fish & Chips” recipe.

Notes
- You can opt for already made crispy tater tots, diced potatoes, or cubed hash browns instead of making your own fries.
