Steps:
- Scrub the sweet potatoes and leave the skin on (best part.).

- Put the raw fries into a mixing bowl, and pour in the olive oil. Toss well to coat.
- Add the seasonings and toss well again.
- Arrange the fries on a baking sheet and bake at 400F for 10 minutes.

HOMEMADE CRISPY SEASONED FRENCH FRIES
My family loves French fries and with 4 children the bag fries from the store just weren't enough and became too expensive. So I tried batter - after all it makes chicken, shrimp, and onion rings crispy so why not potatoes. Now even my husband can't get enough of these French fries. They even stay crispy when you reheat in the microwave.

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.

MONTREAL SEASONED OVEN FRIES
This is a recipe I litally threw together in a pinch to accompany burgers flavored with montreal steak seasoning. The fries turn out tender on the inside and crispy on the outside with the flavors of montreal steak seasoning. Please be warned, though, that these are lightly salty. DH and I enjoy a bit of saltiness, so that wasn't a problem for us.

SIDE ESSENTIALS: SEASONED CHEESY FRIES
This recipe is not so much about the fries, as it is the seasoning and the cheese sauce. This go great on a plateful of French fries, and are equally good on steamed veggies. Or as a seasoning for a nice juicy burger. We will be using them on fries; but, not just any old fries... But, more on that later. So, you ready... Let's...

Steps:
- 1. PREP/PREPARE
- 2. I used to deep fry my French fries... until I became acquainted with Bonnie's oven-baked fries; now, it is my go-to method for making fries. You can use any fries that you desire. You can make your own recipe, buy a bag of frozen... Up to you. However, if you want really yummy, oven-baked fries, check out this recipe. I do not think that you will be disappointed: https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/side/potatoes/best-oven-baked-fries-and-potato-wedges-2.html?r=4
- 3. The making of the sauce can be a bit tricky. If your burner is too high, or you let it cook too long it can get a grainy texture. I would have a bit of extra cheese, and evaporated milk on hand, just in case you need to do some adjusting. Finally, I like to check the seasoning as it cooks. And, depending on the type of cheeses being used, I find that it usually needs a bit of salt, to help bring out the flavors.
- 4. Gather your Ingredients (mise en place).
- 5. THE SEASONING
- 6. Combine the ingredients for the seasoning in a small bowl, and reserve.
- 7. THE FRIES
- 8. If you are using Bonnie's recipe, then sprinkle on a good portion of the seasoning, just before you put them into the oven. If you are using frozen fries, then follow package directions for baking, and sprinkle on the seasoning just before you put them into the oven.
- 9. THE CHEESE SAUCE This is a fairly straightforward way to make a good cheese sauce. You can vary it using different cheeses, and spices.
- 10. Add the grated cheese, and toss with the arrowroot powder, and cumin, until thoroughly coated.
- 11. Pour in the evaporated milk, and set the temp to medium low.
- 12. Stir until the cheese has melted into the liquid.
- 13. When fully melted, set the burner to low, low (just enough to keep it warm), until needed.
- 14. Remove the fries from the oven.
- 15. PLATE/PRESENT
- 16. You can go about this in several ways: 1. On The Side: Place the fries on a plate, sprinkle on a bit more seasoning, and serve the cheese on the side. 2. Over The Top: Follow method 1; however, instead of having the cheese on the side, drizzle it on top. 3. Cheesy French Fry Bowl: My personal fav. Put the fries in an individual bowl, sprinkle on some seasoning, drizzle with cheese, give them a fork, and stand back. And a sprinkle of crispy bacon bits would be a brilliant addition. Enjoy.
- 17. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.

SEASONED OVEN FRIES
Steps:
- 1. Thickly slice the potatoes lengthwise.
- 2. Place the potatoes in a flat baking dish.
- 3. Pour the dressing over the potatoes and marinate for 1 hour, turning occasionally to make sure that all are coated with dressing.
- 4. Preheat the oven to 450.
- 5. Place the potatoes on a nonstick baking sheet.
- 6. Bake until tender and golden brown.
Tips:
- Use the right potatoes: Russet potatoes are the best choice for French fries because they are starchy and have a low moisture content. Yukon Gold potatoes are also a good option, as they are less starchy and have a creamier texture.
- Cut the potatoes evenly: This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from sticking together.
- Soak the potatoes in water: This will help to remove excess starch and make the fries crispier.
- Dry the potatoes thoroughly: This will help to prevent them from sticking together.
- Use a high-quality oil: A good oil for frying French fries is one that has a high smoke point, such as vegetable oil, canola oil, or peanut oil.
- Heat the oil to the right temperature: The ideal temperature for frying French fries is between 325°F and 350°F.
- Fry the potatoes in batches: This will help to prevent the oil from becoming too crowded and the fries from sticking together.
- Cook the potatoes until they are golden brown: This will ensure that they are cooked through and crispy.
- Drain the fries on paper towels: This will help to remove excess oil.
- Season the fries immediately: This will help the seasoning to stick to the fries.
Conclusion:
French fries are a classic side dish that can be enjoyed on any occasion. By following these tips, you can make the perfect French fries at home. So next time you're craving fries, don't head to the nearest fast food restaurant - make your own instead! You won't be disappointed.
