Cajun Fries Ingredients

Preparation

Preparation Directions

1. Prepare the Potatoes

Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Cut them into evenly sized fries, about 1/4 inch thick.

2. Soak the Fries

Soak the cut fries in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch, then drain and pat them dry.

3. Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

4. Season the Fries

In a large bowl, toss the dried fries with olive oil, Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.

5. Bake the Fries

Spread the seasoned fries in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.

6. Serve

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your delicious Cajun fries!
