Ingredients

4 russet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch-thick
6 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon salt

Steps:

Adjust oven rack to lowest position and heat oven to 450 degrees.
Place potatoes in bowl, wrap tightly with plastic, and microwave until translucent around edges, 3 to 5 minutes, shaking bowl to redistribute potatoes halfway through cooking. Transfer potatoes to cooling rack and thoroughly blot fry with paper towels.
Coat rimmed baking sheet with 5 tablespoons oil. Transfer to oven and heat until just smoking, 5 to 7 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk remaining oil, cornstarch, and salt in large bowl. Add potatoes to bowl and toss to coat.
Arrange in a single layer on hot baking sheet and bake until deep golden brown and crisp, 25 to 35 minutes, flipping potatoes half-way through cooking time. Transfer to paper towel-lined plate and blot with additional paper towels. Serve.

EASY CRISPY OVEN FRIES (LOW FAT, LOW CAL)

Easy Crispy Oven Fries (Low Fat, Low Cal) image

This is a delicious lower fat, lower calorie baked french fry--evidently soaking the potatoes in the salt-sugar solution draws out some of their water. This way they brown and crisp instead of steam. So yummy! (to me, these taste like the fry-daddy type french fries my mom made me when I was a kid!) My non-dieter husband also deemed these delicious. 159 calories/5 g. fat, 0 mg. cholesterol/28 g. carbs/3 g fiber Weight Watchers Points per serving: 3 This came from a WW book, but I'm not sure which one.

Ingredients

1 1/4 lbs baking potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch strips
1/2 teaspoon sugar
4 teaspoons oil
1 teaspoon paprika
3/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Spray a non-stick baking sheet w/ non-stick cooking spray.
In a lg. bowl, combine potatoes, 1/4 teaspoons of the salt and all of sugar w/ cold water to cover. Soak 15 min, drain and blot dry.
In another lg. bowl, toss potatoes w/ oil and paprika. Place in a single layer on the baking sheet.
Bake, turning potatoes over as they brown, until cooked through and crisp. (Could take anywhere from 25-45 min., depending on how you cut your potatoes and your oven. My fries only took about 25 minute I checked on my potatoes and turned them about every 5 minute or so. You will see them browning and hear them sizzling.) Sprinkle w/ the remaining 1/2 teaspoons of salt.
