Ingredients

Nonstick spray

2 medium russet potatoes, scrubbed well

1/4 cup canola oil

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Zest of 1 lime

1 clove garlic, minced

1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley

1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh cilantro

1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh mint

Pinch of red pepper flakes

Directions

Special equipment:
Mandoline
  1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Coat 2 sheet trays with nonstick spray.
  2. Cut potatoes into 1/4-inch strips using a mandoline and pat dry. Divide the potatoes between the sheet trays and toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper and spread the potatoes in a single layer. Bake until the potatoes are golden brown and crisp, about 35 minutes, turning once with a spatula halfway through baking.
  3. Remove the potatoes from the oven and while still hot, toss with the lime zest, garlic, parsley, cilantro, mint, and red pepper flakes. Serve hot.

These fries are AMAZING ! I made 2 pans as the Neely's called for ., but I made one pan mojo and one pan with just salt and pepper (traditional fries). <div>I tweaked the mojo fries to suit our tastes, since I omitted the lime zest, cilantro and mint. I just added the garlic , parsley and the red pepper flakes , salt and pepper for the mojo fries. </div><div>These fries tastes exactly like crispy deep fried french fries!<br /></div><div>Both pans came out PERFECT ! SO SO yummy, and guilt free !!</div><div>I had NO leftovers !!  </div><div> I have to add, this french fry recipe will replace my favorite baked fries recipe. This recipe is MUCH easier, since with my old recipe I had to soak my potatoes in water and then take all the trouble to dry them.</div><div>With the ease of this recipe, I will be making homemade french fries a lot more often now !!!</div><div> LOVE LOVE LOVE !!!</div>
