Number Of Ingredients 7

1/4 cup olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
1 teaspoon sea salt
6 large baking potatoes, sliced into thin wedges

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400˚F. Mix olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, Cajun seasoning, and sea salt in a large resealable bag. Add potatoes and toss to evenly coat with seasoned oil. Spread coated potatoes in 1 layer onto a baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes. Stir potatoes with a spatula and continue cooking until crisp, about 10 more minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Russet potatoes are the best choice for baked fries because they have a high starch content, which makes them crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside.
  • Cut the potatoes evenly: This will help them cook evenly.
  • Soak the potatoes in water: This will help remove excess starch and make the fries crispier.
  • Season the fries well: Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika for a classic Cajun flavor.
  • Use a high oven temperature: This will help the fries get crispy.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking sheet: This will prevent the fries from cooking evenly.
  • Flip the fries halfway through cooking: This will help them cook evenly on all sides.
  • Serve the fries hot: They are best enjoyed fresh out of the oven.

Conclusion:

Cajun baked fries are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for parties, potlucks, or a simple weeknight meal. With a few simple tips, you can make the perfect Cajun baked fries at home.
