Ingredients

  • 5 russet potatoes
  • 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Peel potatoes and cut into half-inch thick slices (lengthwise) cut again into 1/2-inch thick fries. Place the potatoes into a pot with cold water and 1 tablespoon of salt. Bring up to a gentle boil and simmer until a paring knife tip goes through easily. Cooked about 3/4 of the way through.

Drain carefully and put in a bowl. Add olive oil, 1 tablespoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Toss well and lay out in 1 layer on nonstick baking sheet. Bake until light brown.

When brown, sprinkle with Parmesan and continue to bake until well-browned and crispy and the cheese is melted and caramelized, about 6 to 7 more minutes. Remove and let cool for 2 minutes. Serve.

    Very good and easy to make. After they had baked and got brown when I added the cheese I also sprinkled a bit with garlic powder and smoked paprika. Will definitely make again.

    Delicious recipe and we will make them again. A healthful, tasty alternative to deep-fried french fries. Be mindful of "medium boil" if they are boiled too hard they start to fall apart. Also, ended up baking them at 450 degrees as suggested in another review, then broiling them. Seemed to take a long time to brown.
