Рецепт Oven Roasted Potato Fries - Baked Potato Fries
Are you a Big Fan of potato (french) fries but often curb your cravings to avoid this unhealthy fast food? Well here's a solution to that - Oven Roasted/Baked Potato Fries. I know frying always gives that additional flavor to any dish but the process definitely decreases its nutritional value too. So now a days these crispy baked fries which are equally appetizing & satiating are my go to option be it snacking or serving them as sides with Burger. No more guilt trips required after eating these delights.
Now to the recipe...
Ingredients:
- 2 large russet potatoes (or use any type of Large potato)
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder (or to taste)
- 1/2 tsp Chaat Masala
- 1/4 tsp dry parsley flakes
- 1 tbsp of Olive oil
- salt & pepper to taste
Method:
Wash the potatoes (with skin) thoroughly & slice them into 4 horizontal slices each as shown. Then cut each slice into french fingers. Soak these french cut potatoes into ice-cold water. Drain & wipe them dry with a paper/regular towel. Preheat Oven to 400F & line baking sheet with aluminium foil or parchment paper & keep it ready. Pop the baking sheet for 10 mins into the hot oven for preheating. This process helps to give crispier fries.
In a bowl, add these dry potato fingers & to these add garlic powder, chaat masala, parsley flakes, olive oil, salt & pepper. Mix well. Remove the hot baking tray from the oven & arrange the potato fingers in one single layer. Then pop them into the oven for about 20 mins or till nice & golden. Flip the sides of the fingers after about 10 mins. Keep a close watch to make sure they don't get burnt. Potatoes with skin will tend to have a darker texture/color than the remaining body.
That's it, our delicious crunchy Oven Roasted/Baked Potato Fries are ready. Serve them on their own as appetizers/snacks with some Tomato ketchup & Mayonnaise or as sides with your Burgers. Enjoy!!
Happy Baking!!
