Directions
Step
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Step
Wash the potatoes thoroughly and peel them if desired. Otherwise, leave the skin on for added texture and nutrients.
Step
Cut the potatoes into thin, even strips, about 1/4 inch thick, to ensure they cook evenly and become crispy.
Step
In a large mixing bowl, toss the potato strips with vegetable oil or olive oil until they are evenly coated.
Step
Add the salt, black pepper, garlic powder (if using), and paprika (if using) to the bowl. Toss the potatoes again to ensure the seasoning is evenly distributed.
Step
Spread the seasoned potato strips in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are not overcrowded.
Step
Bake the French fries in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy, flipping them halfway through the cooking time for even browning.
Step
Once the French fries are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly before serving.
Step
Serve the easy and quick French fries with ketchup or your favorite dipping sauce.
Tips for this recipe
For extra crispy fries, you can soak the cut potato strips in cold water for 30 minutes before baking. This helps remove excess starch, resulting in crispier fries.
