Crispy Baked Fries
Description
This Crispy Baked Fries recipe requires only potatoes, olive oil, and salt. After peeling and cutting the potatoes, removing moisture by patting dry helps achieve crispness. The fries are evenly coated in olive oil to encourage browning and prevent sticking. Spreading them in a single layer on a non-stick oiled baking tray ensures even cooking and crisp edges.
Baking at a high temperature throughout the 30-minute time frame delivers fries with a golden color and crunchy texture while maintaining a soft interior. This straightforward approach does not require frying or specialized equipment.
These fries pair well as a side to a variety of dishes or as a casual snack, offering a healthier alternative to traditional fried fries. Adjust salt levels to taste and serve immediately following baking for best texture.
Ingredients
- 5 potato medium
- 3 tablespoon olive oil (or vegetable oil)
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees Celsius (390 Fahrenheit).
- Peel and cut the potatoes into slices, then cut lengthwise into fries.
- Pat dry the fries using kitchen towel, so that as much moisture can be absorbed.

- Brush a regular non-stick baking tray with the remaining oil, then arrange the fries in a single layer.
- Bake in the middle oven rack for 30 minutes or until golden.
