Default French Fry alternative?

Man, the only thing that I REALLY miss on LC is French fries. Does anyone
know of a low-carb alternative (either homemade or store bought)? Thanks.

Yes fry up almost anything LC and enjoy. I use zuccini, broccoli,
mushrooms, etc in a deep fryer.

I also thought of jicama...

Jicama Un-fries
by Cherie Soria, inspired by Victoria Boutenko
Serves: 6
• 2 jicama, peeled
• 2 tablespoons solar-dried sea salt
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon Celtic salt
1. Slice the peeled jicama lengthwise to resemble French fries.
2. Toss with salt and allow to sit for 1 hour to soften.
3. Rinse well and pat dry using a clean dishtowel.
4. Sprinkle paprika and Celtic salt on Un-fries and serve with Real
Tomato Ketchup.
NOTE: If desired, you may warm Un-fries in a food dehydrator for 1 - 3
hours prior to serving.

and here is an Atkins BB page on it:
