Preparation

- 2
Soak the Potatoes
Place the cut fries into a large bowl of cold water and let them soak for at least 30 minutes. This helps to remove excess starch, which will result in crispier fries.
Cooking
- 3
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

Dry the Potatoes
After soaking, drain the water and pat the fries dry with a clean kitchen towel. This step is crucial to achieve a crispy texture.
- 5
Season the Fries
In a large bowl, combine the dried fries with olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Toss until the fries are evenly coated with the oil and seasonings.
- 6
Bake the Fries
Spread the seasoned fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, flipping them halfway through to ensure even cooking.

Serve
Once the fries are golden brown and crispy, remove them from the oven. Let them cool for a couple of minutes and serve immediately.
