How to make MF Jerk Seasoned sweet potatoe fries.

Good morning everyone, it’s the MF Team and we’re back again with another MF Products blog for you guys to enjoy. Today, our recipe is going to be about Jamaican sweet potatoes fries and how to make them. Every once in a while the desire for chips creep within the MF Team, especially this Jamaican jerk sweet potatoes fries. Once word got around about how special they were it wasn’t long before everyone at HQ was begging for a bite. These spicy fries are baked instead of fried which makes them healthier and are tantalisingly seasoned with an MF Jerk seasoning to pack a flavoursome punch. When eating these we loved how the sweetness of the potatoes paired nicely with the spice from the seasoning and how the inside of the fries was soft, but the outsides were crunchy. Now you’ve all heard about how good these fries are, I’m sure you’re bursting to make them. Well, let's get to it.

Ingredients:

-          2 large sweet potatoes, about 2 to 2 ½ pounds total weight

-          2 tablespoons of olive or canola oil

-          2 tablespoons of cornstarch, optional but recommended for crispness

-          ½ a teaspoon of MF Cinnamon

-          1 teaspoon of dried thyme

-          3 tablespoons of MF Jerk Seasoning

Method:

1)      Preheat oven to 450°.

2)      Slice sweet potatoes into long strips, ¼ to ½ inch thick. Place into a large bowl or zipper bag. Add olive oil, cornstarch, MF Cinnamon and MF Jerk Seasoning. Toss until sweet potato strips are evenly coated.

3)      Arrange sweet potato strips in even layers on baking sheets. Bake 10 minutes, gently flip, and bake 10 to 15 minutes more, until crisp.

4)      Remove from oven and optionally sprinkle with fresh cilantro before serving. Serve with a dipping sauce of choice.

We really hope you enjoy these fries as much as we did! MF Products out.

How to make the MF Soursop smoothie.

  Good evening MF Blog readers, we hope you all are staying active during this cold Christmas season. As the year draws to a close, MF Products still have a variety of tasty recipes to broadcast and this week we will be looking at how we can use our MF Soursop to make some delightful treats. Today we will be making our very own MF Soursop smoothie with bananas and almonds. We chose bananas due it’s alpha and beta carotene content when consumed by the body, this then turns in vitamin A. Bananas are also a good source of potassium and due to its low water content, it contains more calories and is more filling. This pairs wonderfully with the benefits of soursop (previously mentioned in another blog) as it; possesses antioxidants, fights against bacteria, and boosts the immune system. Almonds are also very beneficial as they contain unsaturated fats, fibre, magnesium as well as protein. When adding all three ingredients together, this is a very healthy smoothie that will help to ...

Benefits of pimento (also known as allspice).

Before we get into the benefits of pimento, at MF Products UK we believe we must look at a foods history first and learn about its origin. So, without further ado let’s look into pimento which is also known as allspice. The pimento tree is indigenous to the Caribbean Islands. It was found growing in Jamaica by early Spanish explorers who were quite impressed with its tantalising taste and aroma of the berries and the leaves. Pimento trees were then later discovered in Cuba and were presumed to have been taken there by migrant birds who had eaten the berries. They have also been found in Mexico, but it is Jamaica that has the longest history, having been in continuous production since the tree was identified in about the year 1509. The name Pimento originated from the Spanish word "pimienta" which meant ‘peppercorn’. To most English-speaking people the tree is called "pimento" and the berries "allspice". The name allspice originated from the widespread n...
