Potatoes

Method
Preparation
- 1
Wash and Cut Potatoes
Thoroughly wash the Russet potatoes under cold running water to remove any dirt. Pat dry with a kitchen towel. Cut each potato into thin strips (about 1/4 inch thick) to create fries.
- 2
Soak Potatoes
Place the cut fries in a bowl of cold water and let them soak for at least 30 minutes. This helps remove excess starch and makes the fries crispier.
Cooking
- 3
Preheat Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). This high temperature is crucial for achieving crispy fries.
- 4
Drain and Dry Potatoes
After soaking, drain the potatoes and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel to remove as much moisture as possible.
- 5
Season Fries
In a large bowl, combine the dried fries with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and oregano. Toss everything together until each fry is evenly coated with the oil and seasonings.
- 6
Arrange on Baking Sheet
Spread the seasoned fries in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Avoid overcrowding to ensure they cook evenly.
- 7
Bake Fries
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping the fries halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
- 8
Add Parmesan Cheese (optional)
If using, sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the fries during the last 5 minutes of baking for an extra flavor boost.
- 9
Serve
Once done, remove the fries from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your Carson's Seasoned Fries hot!
