Waffle Fries

Method

Preparation

1

Preparation of Potatoes

Begin by washing and peeling the Russet potatoes. Cut each potato into waffle shapes using a waffle fry cutter or a sharp knife. Aim for uniform thickness to ensure even cooking.

2

Soaking

Place the cut waffle fries in a large bowl filled with cold water. Let them soak for at least 30 minutes. This step helps to remove excess starch and achieve a crispier texture.

3

Preheating

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). This high temperature is crucial for getting the fries crispy.

4

Draining and Drying

After soaking, drain the fries and pat them dry with paper towels. Removing moisture is key to getting them crispy.

5

Seasoning

In a large bowl, combine the dried waffle fries with olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and dried oregano. Toss until the fries are evenly coated with the seasoning mix.

6

Baking

Lay the seasoned 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 and crispy.

7

Adding Cheese

During the last 5 minutes of baking, sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the fries and return to the oven until the cheese is melted and slightly golden.

8

Serving

Once baked, remove the waffle fries from the oven and let them cool slightly. Serve immediately as a delicious side or snack!
