1
Wash and Peel
Thoroughly wash the Russet potatoes under cold water to remove any dirt. Peel the potatoes with a vegetable peeler.
2
Cut into Fries
Cut the peeled potatoes into evenly sized strips, approximately 1/4 inch thick, to ensure even cooking. Place the cut fries in a bowl of cold water to soak for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.

3
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
4
Drain and Dry
After soaking, drain the fries and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel to remove excess moisture.
5
Season the Fries
In a large bowl, toss the dried fries with olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika until evenly coated.
6
Bake the Fries
Spread the seasoned fries out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
7
Serve
Once the fries are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a minute. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
