Fries

Method

Preparing the Fries

  1. 1

    Cut the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Cut them into even-sized fries, about 1/4 inch thick to ensure even cooking.

  2. 2

    Soak the Fries

    Soak the cut fries in a bowl of cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch. This helps to make them crispier.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

  4. 4

    Season the Fries

    Drain the soaked fries and pat them dry with a towel. In a large bowl, toss the fries with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.

  5. 5

    Bake the Fries

    Spread the seasoned fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and crispy, flipping halfway through.

  6. 6

    Add Parmesan

    Remove fries from the oven and immediately sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese while they are hot. Toss gently to ensure even distribution.
