Equipment
- Vegetable Brush
- Chef's Knife
- Parchment Paper
- Sheet Pan
Ingredients
- 4 count russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoon vegetable oil
- ½ teaspoon salt more to taste
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
- Wash potatoes and slice into evenly cut matchstick shapes. I like to leave the skin on for extra fiber, but you can peel the skin if you prefer.
- Add potatoes to a large bowl and cover with room temperature water. Drain, and then add more water and let soak for about 20 minutes to remove the starch.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- Drain and completely dry your potatoes, then toss with the vegetable oil.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and a little cooking spray.
- Add the potatoes to the baking sheet, leaving some room in between each fry.
- Bake for about 20 minutes, then turn the oven up to 425°F and continue baking another 15-25 minutes until fries are crispy and done through.
- Season with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Enjoy!
Notes
Tips & Tricks:
Make sure you cut the potatoes into even sizes for a better, more even cook.
Use a large sheet pan to ensure your fries have room to breathe. If you make these with a crowded pan, you will need to shuffle the fries about 30 minutes into baking.
