Best 6 Crispy Spicy French Fries Recipes

HOMEMADE CRISPY SEASONED FRENCH FRIES

Steps:

• Slice potatoes into French fries, and place into cold water so they won't turn brown while you prepare the oil.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. While the oil is heating, sift the flour, garlic salt, onion salt, (regular) salt, and paprika into a large bowl. Gradually stir in enough water so that the mixture can be drizzled from a spoon.
• Dip potato slices into the batter one at a time, and place in the hot oil so they are not touching at first. The fries must be placed into the skillet one at a time, or they will clump together. Fry until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.

SPICY CHILI FRENCH FRIES

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a large baking sheet.
• Fill a large bowl with cold water, add the potatoes, and allow to soak for 10 minutes.
• Whisk together the oil, vegetable juice cocktail, chili powder, ground cumin, onion granules, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Drain the potatoes, and pat dry with paper towels. Toss the potatoes with the oil and spice mixture; stir until evenly coated. Arrange fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake fries in preheated oven for 20 minutes. Turn and continue to bake until browned and crispy, about 20 additional minutes.

OVEN-CRISPY FRENCH FRIES WITH PAPRIKA-PARMESAN SALT

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Pat the potatoes dry and cut them lengthwise into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Turn each slice flat and slice again lengthwise into even 1/2-inch-thick fries. Place the potatoes in a mixing bowl and add the olive oil, seasoning and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Toss well to combine, then transfer the fries to a large baking sheet and arrange them in one even layer so that they are not touching. Roast, scraping the potatoes from the baking sheet with a metal spatula and turning them over halfway through, until golden brown and crispy, about 30 minutes.
• While the potatoes are cooking, combine the cheese, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl and stir to blend. When the potatoes are crisp and brown, sprinkle with the paprika-parmesan salt. Serve hot.

AIR FRYER SWEET AND SPICY FRENCH FRIES

Steps:

• Cut the potatoes into thin sticks about 1/4-inch in thickness.
• Preheat a 2.5-liter air fryer to 400 degrees F.
• Place the potatoes in a large mixing bowl. Pour in the oil and sprinkle with the garlic powder, paprika, chili powder and 1 teaspoon salt. Toss until evenly coated.
• Lay the potatoes in a single layer into the basket of the air fryer. Cook, tossing every 5 minutes, until crispy and browned along the edges, 15 to 20 minutes. (For best results, don't overfill the basket.)
• Remove the potatoes from the air fryer and place on a serving platter.
