Oven Fries are healthier...a couple more details in the preparation
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

as I peel the potatoes, I place them into cold water bowl next to me. after peeling all potatoes, I remove one whole potato... at a time, to cut them lengthwise in 1/2 inch pieces, and place the cut pieces back into the water bowl where they stay for 40 minutes minimum, so starch can be drawn out. . after the 40 minutes, is a good point to start the oven to the 450 degree temp. . then, I remove the cut pieces and lay them onto paper towel covered cookie sheet, cover with more paper towel, to pat the potatoes dry of excess water. . then, I put the cut pieces into another bowl and sprinkle olive oil/ canola oil [your choice] and little salt and pepper, and toss the pieces. . then, spray the cookie sheet with spray oil of your choice. lay out the cut pieces flat onto the cookie sheet. . insert cookie sheet into top rack of the pre-heated oven [450 degrees]. pray. (lol) check on the fries about 1/2 way through, possible need to turn them once. . CAUTION: remove cookie sheet using oven mitts.... . I use tongs with black, flat silicon ends to turn the fries and to remove the fries from the cookie sheet. . voila! are yummy Read more

The perfect alternative to fast-food fries.
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

These fries were delicious! I didn't feel guilty about eating them because I knew they were' loaded with unhealthy fats and... fried. Be sure to flip the fries in the middle of cooking so that all sides get crispy. I will definitely be making these again with a homemade burger!Read more
