    The fries do take longer to cook than the recipe calls for. I did 20-25 minutes and then realized I should broil them. I broiled them for 4 minutes on each side and they came out perfectly and crunchy without the fat from frying them. Definitely recommend but just make sure you broil them.

    These fries take waaay longer than 20-25 minutes to crisp up. Even after they crisped up when I let them cook longer, the texture still seemed a bit off for me. The flavor is there but I think the recipe needs some revising.

    Family loved them! I didn't make the ketchup though...next time I will broil for 2 min. on each side for a bit more crispiness! They were ALL gone at dinner!

    I just made these. I did put the temp for 400 and then 425 for 5-7 more minutes. They were good.

    A couple of reviewers noted that the fries never crisped up. Over the cooking period - and mine were in for about 45 minutes total - I gradually increased the temp from 350, to 400, and finished at 450. This worked and especially the smaller fries were well browned and crispy on the outside

    I don't know if I did something wrong, but I could not get these fries to crisp up at all! They came out more like hashbrows, but it is hard to mess up a potato, so they were still good to eat.
