Ingredients

• 4 large Russet potatoes
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 cup Non-fat Greek yogurt
• 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Step 2

Peel the potatoes and cut them into matchstick-sized strips.

Step 3

Place the potatoes in a bowl of cold water and let them soak for about 30 minutes. This helps to remove some of the starch and gives a crispier texture.

Step 4

Drain the potatoes and pat them dry using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.

Step 5

In a large bowl, toss the potatoes with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.

Step 6

Spread the potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Make sure they are not touching each other for even baking.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.

Step 8

While the fries are baking, prepare the garlic aioli sauce: in a small bowl, combine non-fat Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, minced garlic cloves, lemon juice, and chopped fresh parsley. Stir until smooth. Season with a pinch of salt if desired.

Step 9

Once the fries are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly on the baking sheet for 5 minutes. This helps them crisp up further.

Step 10

Serve the crispy fries warm with the prepared garlic aioli sauce on the side for dipping.
