Who doesn't like French Fry's? - This is a Oven-Baked version.
Try spicing med. sized potatoes up leaving them plain and fry up with olive oil, cayenne pepper; powdered - fresh garlic or rosemary!
I started making my own fries long ago, when I realized that grocery store french fries were not healthy produce for my children. If you can't read the label, pronounce some of the ingredients on the packages don't buy! They do have a practically no oil french fryer out. I haven't found who or where they are sold yet. For now, it maybe time to invest in a good knife! Also, when you spend 5 minutes cutting them yourself you save a lot of money. Potatoes tend to be pretty inexpensive! French Fry Friday includes yummy organically grown potato fries, it you can afford them.© copyright 2006-12 by P T Sherman..
*1 medium-size potato for each person and then cut up 1 or 2 extra. (3 to 4 medium potatoes into wedges, skinny string style, regular fry shape?
*Spices: Garlic salt, All season salt or Sea salt (other spices suggestions are below.) Fresh milled pepper
*Olive oil or use non-stick baking olive oil spray (In a pinch; use safflower oil i.e.)
Slice up the peeled or unpeeled potatoes; spray a non-stick baking pan with olive oil spray.
Using a large plastic or another bag; place the fries inside and sprinkle seasonings into the bag. A bag; has a batch of 1-2 cloves of fresh crushed garlic, sea salt and pepper. In addition, add whatever seasoning you want like; Cajun, rosemary, cayenne pepper, etc! Seal the bag and shake until the fries seem evenly coated with spices.
Arrange on the baking sheet and spray the top of the fries with a light spray of olive oil spray. Cook at 400 degrees until either they are slightly crisp on the edges or becoming slightly brown. Depending on the size of each fry and the thickness
Time could vary from 20 minutes to nearly 60 minutes. Pierce with a fork to make sure they are done before taking them out, and as crispy as you like them.
Drain excess oil...If used; on brown paper bag or paper towel. Serve with Ketchup or 1/2 n 1/2 mayo and ketchup. (Can delude with some vinegar and sub. sour cream for mayo)
They are delicious and nutritious – not to mention easy. Leave the skin on? That’s where the fiber and most of nutrients are found.
If possible; DO buy organic potatoes a potassium rich food that we all should try to buy organic. The extra money you spend will still be less than if you bought bags of pre-made fries. Organic sweet potatoes also make super delicious french fries! With all of this potato cooking, you can see why week-ends are so “spicy” and fun, to look forward too...right?
