FRIES FROM SCRATCH

Fries from scratch 🍟

Chop potatoes into shoelaces and soak them for 30 minutes at least, but they can soak overnight.

Pat to dry, season (salt, pepper, chili pepper, garlic) and drizzle with olive oil.

Bake @ 400 for 25-35 minutes based on how crispy you want them!!

... Read moreMaking fries from scratch can be a rewarding experience, and it's easier than you think! Start by choosing the right potatoes; Russet potatoes are ideal due to their high starch content. After cutting your potatoes into thin shoelace shapes, soaking them is essential to remove excess starch, which helps achieve that perfect crispiness when baking. For added flavor, experiment with different seasonings beyond just salt and pepper; try adding smoked paprika, rosemary, or even parmesan cheese for a gourmet touch. Baking your fries at 400°F allows for even cooking and a great texture. Keep an eye on them as baking times can vary depending on your oven and the thickness of your fries. Remember, the key to perfect fries lies in the preparation and baking process! If you want to make your fries even healthier, consider air frying them or using an alternate cooking method. Also, pairing your homemade fries with a variety of dips, like aioli or spicy ketchup, can make your snack time even more enjoyable. Enjoy your crispy homemade fries and delight your friends and family with this easy recipe!
