Crispy fries in the oven are possible! Deep frying at home can be dangerous so opt for oven fries instead. These fries are made with russet potatoes since they have a high starch level which results in a crispier fry. They are seasoned with a spicy mixture of paprika, garlic powder, and ancho chili powder. If you don't like spice, feel free to omit the ancho. Served with the milkshake above or ketchup.
Ingredients
2 large russet potatoes, washed and cut into fries (peels on)
1.5 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon paprika
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon fine grain sea salt
¼ teaspoon ancho chili powder
Instructions
Preheat oven to 450 degrees and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a bowl, coat the cut potatoes with the oil, salt, and spices.
Transfer the potatoes to the baking sheet and spread them out into a single layer.
Bake for 30 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Remove from oven once they are golden and crispy. Depending on how thick you cut your fries, the cooking time will vary. After you flip them, keep an eye on them. No one likes burnt fries!!
Serve with the milkshake above or ketchup.
