Take note
Remember to always exercise caution when working with hot objects, such as the oven and baking sheet. Use oven mitts or heat-resistant gloves to protect your hands. Be careful not to overcrowd the baking sheet as it may affect the crispiness of the fries.

1

Preheat your oven

Start by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C). This temperature will help achieve crispy fries.

2

Cut your potatoes

Wash and peel 2-3 large potatoes. Cut them into even-sized sticks, about 1/4 inch thick. Thicker fries will be softer on the inside, while thinner fries will be crispier.

3

Soak the fries

Place the cut fries in a bowl of cold water and let them soak for about 30 minutes. This step helps remove the excess starch, resulting in crispier fries.

4

Dry and season the fries

Drain the soaked fries and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel. Transfer them to a large bowl and toss with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of salt, and any other seasonings you desire, such as garlic powder or paprika.

5

Arrange on the baking sheet

Line a reusable silicone baking sheet on a baking tray. Spread the seasoned fries in a single layer, making sure there is enough space between each fry for optimal crispiness.

6

Bake to crispy perfection

Place the baking tray in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the fries are golden brown and crispy. Flip the fries halfway through to ensure even browning.

7

Serve and enjoy

Once the fries are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly. Serve them with your favorite dipping sauces or enjoy them as is. Get ready for some seriously delicious snacking!
