FQ Frites Ingredients
Method
FQ Frites Directions
- 1
Prepare the Potatoes
Wash and peel the potatoes (if desired). Cut them into even-sized sticks, about 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick.
- 2
Soak the Potatoes
Soak the cut potatoes in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch. This helps achieve a crispier texture.
- 3
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- 4
Dry and Season
Drain the potatoes and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel. In a large bowl, toss the dried potatoes with olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika until evenly coated.
- 5
Bake the Frites
Spread the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.

Garnish and Serve
Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and serve hot.
