Though the mainstream potato fries also taste superb, these carrot fries is definitely something the whole world should not miss. Aside from it’s delicious taste and the many health benefits, these are Paleo fries!

 Carrots is a very good source of beta-carotene, which the body converts into vitamin A that is good for the eyes. Sumac, an ingredient of this cuisine also, has higher antioxidant activities than many common fruits and vegetables, suggesting that sumac might have earned a place on the superfood list. That is the point there, you’ve got an superfood in your ingredients. This is the paleo diet is all about! Plus, it is cooked using the very healthy olive oil, which is a good alternative to dangerous, fatty cooking oils the modern day uses today.

To make and prepare this yummy paleo fries, simply cut ends of carrots off, slice lengthwise, slice each side into 3 pieces to create carrot shape fries. Set the slices aside. Then, add olive oil, sumac, and salt to a medium bowl.Put the bowl into a preheated oven at 425 F. After that, cook the fries in the bowl for 10 minutes. Next, remove the fries from the bowl and flip them. Next, increase oven heat to 450 and cook for an additional 10 minutes (or until crispy). After that,  let carrot fries cool for 10 minutes. Lastly, finely chop mint and sprinkle on top of carrot fries.

That is all the process and the nutritional facts about this cuisine that you need to know.
