Cajun Fries Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

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

  2. 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. 3

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

  4. 4

    Season the Fries

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

  5. 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. 6

    Serve

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