Ingredients

3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons canola oil
3 large baking potatoes, 12 ounces each
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley leaves

Directions

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.

Heat the garlic and oil in a small saucepan over medium heat for 2 minutes. Strain the garlic from the oil with a small mesh strainer. Set both garlic and oil aside.

Cut the potatoes into 1/4-inch sticks. In a large bowl, toss the oil, potatoes and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray and spread the potatoes onto it in a single layer. Bake until golden and crisp, about 35 minutes.

Remove potatoes from the tray with a metal spatula. Toss with parsley, reserved garlic, and additional salt, to taste. Serve immediately.

Loved them!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

These were great baked fries. I did substitute olive oil instead of canola oil, and i did not add the parsley, mainly because... i did not have any. Read more

Amazing!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I followed this recipe exactly and the fries were incredible! Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. I had to keep my... eye on them and flip them several times to keep each side cooking evenly. My husband and I ate them all, so addicting! Now I'm just trying to find more dinner meals to make WITH the fries :)Read more

Great Base recipe
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Great starter recipe! It was not too garlicky for me, in fact I added another clove. You do have to watch them in the oven-I... had a couple that did burn but it was my fault-I just needed to check them more frequently and they would have been fine. The possibilites are endless with this recipe! I added a little cayenne pepper for some heat. EXCELLENT! The only bad reviews seem to be people who are not watching the fries close enough in the oven. Read more
