Ingredients:

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the Oven:
    • Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C). This high temperature ensures a crispy exterior while keeping the insides fluffy.
  2. Prepare the Potatoes:
    • Wash and peel the potatoes with a peeler to avoid cuts, or leave the skins on for a rustic touch. Cut them into uniform, thin strips with a French fry cutter or knife about 1/4 inch wide.
  3. Soak and Dry:
    • Place the cut potatoes in a bowl of cold water for at least 30 minutes. This helps remove excess starch for crispier fries. After soaking, thoroughly pat the fries dry with paper towels.
  4. Seasoning Blend:
    • In a small bowl, mix together salt, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and black pepper to create a flavorful seasoning blend.
  5. Coat with Oil:
    • Place the dried fries on a large baking sheet. Drizzle vegetable oil over the fries and toss them until evenly coated. The oil is key to achieving that golden, crispy exterior.
  6. Season and Toss:
    • Sprinkle the seasoning blend over the oiled fries. Toss the fries on the baking sheet until they are evenly coated with the seasoning.
  7. Spread Out on Baking Sheet:
    • Arrange the seasoned fries in a single layer on the baking sheet. Avoid overcrowding to ensure proper crispiness. Use multiple baking sheets if necessary.
  8. Bake to Perfection:
    • Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping the fries halfway through. Keep an eye on them during the last few minutes to prevent overcooking. Don’t forget to wear your oven mints.
  9. Garnish (Optional):
    • Once out of the oven, garnish your fries with chopped fresh parsley for a burst of color and added flavor.
  10. Serve and Enjoy:
