Observations
How can I make my baked fries even crispier?
To achieve extra crispiness, soak the cut potatoes in cold water for at least 30 minutes before baking. This helps remove excess starch.
What type of potatoes are best for making fries?
Russet potatoes are ideal for making fries due to their high starch content, which results in a fluffy interior and crispy exterior.
Can I use other oils besides olive oil for this recipe?
Yes, you can use oils like avocado oil or canola oil, which also have high smoke points and will help achieve a crispy texture.
How do I store leftover baked fries?
Store leftover fries in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat them in the oven for the best texture.
Can I season baked fries with other spices?
Absolutely! Feel free to experiment with spices like paprika, garlic powder, or even parmesan cheese for added flavor.
