Instructions

  1. Thoroughly wash the potatoes and slice them into ¼ inch thick slices.
  2. Place the potatoes in a large mix and cover them with cold water.  Let the fries soak for at least 30 minutes.
  3. While the potatoes are soaking, preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit and position an oven rack to a lower portion of the oven. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  4. Drain the water off of the potatoes, rinse and pat the potatoes dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
  5. Make sure to dry the bowl out that the potatoes were stored in as well.  Place the potatoes back into the bowl.
  6. In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the salt, garlic powder, paprika and black pepper.
  7. Drizzle the oil on top of the potatoes and sprinkle the seasoning mixture on top.  Toss the thoroughly coat the potatoes with the oil and seasoning mixture.
  8. Spread the potatoes into an even layer on the baking sheet.
  9. Bake in the oven for 20 minutes.  Carefully toss the french fries and flip them.
  10. Bake for another 10-15 minutes (toss the fries 2-3 more times during this cook time) until the fries are golden brown and crispy.
  11. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with more salt based on your preference. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

  • You can peel the potatoes if you prefer before making these french fries. 
  • You can allow the potatoes to soak overnight as well and bake the next day.  
  • Refrigerate any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.  The fries will get soft as you store them so I recommend reheating them in the oven to make them crispy again.
