Number Of Ingredients 6

nonstick cooking spray
2 1/4 lb russet potatoes, cut lengthwise into batons (see pics)
3 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons chopped flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 F. Spray two large, rimmed baking sheets with nonstick cooking spray. Combine the potatoes with 2 1/2 tablespoons of the oil in a large bowl and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper. Divide the potatoes between the two baking sheets and spread in a single layer. Bake for 30 minutes, or until the fries are tender and browned (no need to flip or toss them while they're in the oven but I did rotate the baking sheets a few times). Increase the oven temperature to 500 F and continue cooking until the fries are dark brown in spots, another 5 minutes or so. Meanwhile, whisk the remaining 1/2 tablespoon of oil with the garlic and parsley in a large bowl. Add the hot fries and toss to coat. Season to taste with salt and pepper before serving.

Tips:

  • Use russet potatoes for the best results. They have a high starch content, which makes them fluffy on the inside and crispy on the outside.
  • Cut the potatoes into ½-inch thick wedges. This will ensure that they cook evenly.
  • Soak the potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes before frying. This will help to remove excess starch and make them more crispy.
  • Dry the potatoes thoroughly before frying. This will help to prevent them from sticking together.
  • Use a large pot or Dutch oven for frying the potatoes. This will give them plenty of room to cook evenly.
  • Heat the oil to 350 degrees Fahrenheit before adding the potatoes. This will help to prevent them from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
  • Fry the potatoes in batches. This will help to prevent them from overcrowding and becoming soggy.
  • Cook the potatoes until they are golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes per batch.
  • Drain the potatoes on paper towels to remove excess oil.
  • Season the potatoes with garlic powder, salt, and pepper to taste.
  • Serve the potatoes immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
