Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 450°F.
  • Place the cut fries in a colander and rinse under cold running water to remove surface starch. Drain well.
  • Pat the fries dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels until as much moisture as possible is removed.
  • Spread the dried fries on a sheet tray. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive or vegetable oil and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon kosher salt. Toss gently to coat evenly.
  • Arrange the fries in a single layer on the tray with some space between pieces so they can brown rather than steam.
  • Bake on the middle rack for 20 minutes. Remove the tray and toss or flip the fries to promote even browning.
  • Return the tray to the oven and bake an additional 10 minutes, or until the fries are golden and crisp to your liking.
