FAQ:
Q: Can I bake these instead of frying?
A: Yes, bake at 200°C (400°F) for about 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, but frying gives the best crispiness.
Q: Can I use sweet potatoes instead of regular potatoes?
A: Absolutely! Sweet potatoes add a natural sweetness and unique flavor to the sticks.
Q: What if the mixture is too sticky to shape?
A: Add a little more cornstarch gradually until it becomes easier to handle.
