Description

These no-fry French fries deliver the satisfying crunch and savory flavor of traditional fried potatoes without the excess oil. Made with hearty baking potatoes, minced garlic, and a hint of black pepper, they are a perfect side dish for burgers, sandwiches, or as a snack. The high-heat baking method ensures the edges get crispy while the insides remain fluffy. This recipe is vegan, low-fat, and incredibly simple to prepare with just a few pantry staples. Serve them hot from the oven for the best texture and flavor.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 450&# 194;°F (230ðC).
  2. Line a jelly-roll pan with aluminum foil and generously spray the foil with vegetable cooking spray.
  3. Scrub the potatoes clean. Cut each potato lengthwise into 1/2-inch wide slices, then cut each slice into 1/2-inch wide strips.
  4. Place the potato strips in the prepared pan. Drizzle with oil and add minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Toss well to coat evenly.
  5. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, tossing the fries once or twice during cooking, until they are crisp and golden brown.
  6. Serve immediately while hot and crispy.

Note

For sweet potatoes: Prepare 2 pounds of sweet potatoes using the same method, but bake for 35 to 40 minutes, turning once, as they cook slightly faster and caramelize quickly.

To ensure crispiness, make sure the fries are not overcrowded on the pan. Use two pans if necessary.

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or an air fryer to restore crispiness; microwaving will make them soggy.
