Method
Potato Preparation
- 1
Preparing the Potatoes
Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Cut them into thin strips (about 1/4 inch thick) to form fries.
- 2
Soaking the Fries
Place the cut fries in a bowl of cold water and soak for at least 30 minutes. This helps remove excess starch for crispier fries.
- 3
Draining and Drying
After soaking, drain the fries and pat them dry with paper towels to remove moisture.
Cooking the Fries
- 4
Preheating the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- 5
Coating the Fries
In a large bowl, toss the dried fries with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
- 6
Baking the Fries
Spread the fries in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
Herb Seasoning

Adding Herbs
In the last 5 minutes of baking, sprinkle the chopped rosemary, thyme, and garlic powder over the fries, returning to the oven to allow the herbs to infuse their flavor.
