Best Easy Fat Free Seasoned 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.

SEASONED FRENCH FRIES

Steps:

• Arrange french fries in a greased 15x10x1-in. baking pan. Sprinkle with onion salt and paprika; toss to coat. Bake at 450° for 15-20 minutes or until lightly browned. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese; toss to coat.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
• Cover an 8"x8" pan with tin foil and spray with cooking oil and sprinkle on salt.
• Cut potato to desired wedge sizes.
• Place potato pieces into quart size bag and spray in some cooking oil and add the herbs.
• Shake until the pieces are coated evenly.
• Pour into the 8"x8" pan and add some more salt on top (I like mine really saltly).

• Enjoy with sauce of your choice!

PERFECT FRENCH FRIES

Steps:

• Peel and rinse the potatoes. Then cut them into sticks by cutting the potato in 4 or 5 vertical pieces, and then cutting each piece into sticks.
• Place them in a large bowl and cover with cold water. Allow them to soak, 2 to 3 hours. (You can also stick them in the fridge and let them soak overnight.)
• When you're ready to make the fries, drain off the water and lay the potatoes on 2 baking sheets lined with paper towels. Blot with paper towels to dry them.
• Heat a few inches of oil in a heavy pot to 300 degrees F. In 3 or 4 batches, cook the potatoes until soft, 4 to 5 minutes per batch. They should not be brown at this point! You just want to start the cooking process. Remove each batch and drain on new/dry paper towels.
• Once all the potatoes have been fried at 300 degrees F, turn up the heat until the oil reaches 400 degrees F. When the oil's hot, start frying the potatoes in batches again, cooking until the fries are golden and crisp. Remove the potatoes from the oil and drain on paper towels.
• Sprinkle with sea salt and dive in!

PERFECT SEASONED FRENCH FRIES

Steps:

• Cut fries as desired.
• Soak COVERED with cold water for 2-3 hrs (more won't hurt - this dispenses with the starch that keeps them from browning nicely).
• Blot dry.
• First fry - in batches AT *300* degrees until just tender (yes, this is a lower temp than you would think).
• When all are done with first fry, toss gently, but well, with seasonings.
• Second fry - Increase oil temp to *400* degrees, frying until golden & beautiful.
• ALTERNATIVE TO FRYING:.
• In boiling water, place fries in & boil 3 minutes - no longer!
• Set aside to cool, toss with seasonings.
• On baking sheet sprayed with light mist of oil, place potatoes so they are not touching each other.
• Spray them lightly with oil.
• Bake in preheated 450 degree oven for 18 - 24 minutes until golden & crunchy.
