Best Oven Roasted Potato Fries Recipes

OVEN ROASTED POTATO 'FRIES'

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees F.
• Cut the potatoes into nice thick "handcut fry slices," put in a large bowl and cover with cold water. You can do this in advance if you want - for up to 24 hours. It helps to remove the excess starch.
• Drain the potatoes and pat dry on paper towel.
• Arrange in a single layer on a baking sheet. Drizzle with oil, sprinkle with salt, pepper, and paprika.
• Bake until tender and golden crispy outside, about 40 minutes. When out of the oven, hit them with some dashes of steak spice.

OVEN ROASTED SWEET POTATO FRIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
• 1. Cut the potatoes into 1/4″ thin strips, or to your desired thickness and length. Mix all other ingredients together in a large bowl and toss with the potatoes until they are evenly coated.
• 2. Transfer the potatoes to a large baking sheet covered with parchment paper. Spread the potatoes in a single layer. Try not to overcrowd or have multiple layers of fries - you want them to be roasted, not steamed.
• 3. Place in the oven and cook for 25-30 minutes, turning the fries once or twice during that time to cook evenly. May take more or less time, depending on the size and thickness you cut the fries.
• Remove once the edges slightly begin to brown and fries begin to crisp. Sprinkle course salt on top when they are hot out of the oven.

RACHEL'S OVEN FRIES / ROASTED POTATO WEDGES

Steps:

• Cut the potatoes into wedges shaped like large french fries, about 6-8 from each potato.
• Place the wedges into a large tossing/mixing bowl. Pour in the lemon juice and olive oil and toss well to fully coat the potato wedges.
• Put the spice mix (mine, a premade one, or your choice) on the potatoes and toss well to coat, shake any additional spices on if need be.
• Place the potatoes laying flat in a baking dish and bake at 350 for 15 minutes.
• Turn them so the other sides can cook, bake for another 30 minutes.
• Let cool, blot off any excess oil, and enjoy.

ROASTED SWEET POTATO OVEN FRIES

Steps:

• Place the chopped lemon grass and ginger in a mortar and pestle and add a generous pinch of kosher salt. Pound and grind until you have obtained a coarse paste. Add 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and work the ingredients together with the pestle. Scrape into a small saucepan and add the remaining olive oil. Stir together and bring to a very gentle sizzle over medium-low heat. Sizzle, shaking or swirling the pan often, for 2 minutes and turn off the heat. Allow the mixture to steep for 30 minutes. Strain into a large bowl, pressing the ginger and lemon grass against the strainer to extract all of the oil. You should have 3 tablespoons of oil. Add a little more olive oil if necessary.
• Meanwhile preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment and brush the parchment with olive oil. Cut the sweet potatoes in half lengthwise. If they are very long, cut the halves in half crosswise as well. Cut each half into 4 long wedges - smaller sweet potatoes will yield 8 wedges, larger will yield 16.
• Place the sweet potato wedges in the bowl with the oil. Add the ground cumin and coriander, and salt to taste, and toss together until the wedges are thoroughly coated with oil. Place on the baking sheet in a single layer (use 2 baking sheets if necessary). Place in the oven and set the timer for 10 minutes. Turn the wedges over and roast for another 10 minutes. Turn the wedges again and roast for another 5 to 10 minutes, depending on the thickness of the wedges and how fast they are caramelizing. The wedges should be tender when pierced and there should be some caramelized bits, especially at the thin tips. Remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly before eating.
