Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 4 large Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
Step 2
Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Leave the skin on for added crispiness.
Step 3
Cut the potatoes into thin, even sticks about 1/4-inch thick.
Step 4
Place the cut potatoes in a large bowl, add cold water to cover, and let them soak for at least 30 minutes. This helps remove excess starch, making them crispier.
Step 5
Meanwhile, mince the garlic cloves finely and set aside.
Step 6
Drain the potatoes and pat them dry thoroughly with a kitchen towel or paper towels.
Step 7
Transfer the dried potatoes to a clean bowl. Add cornstarch and toss the potatoes until evenly coated. This step is essential for achieving maximum crispiness.
Step 8
Add olive oil, salt, and black pepper to the potatoes. Toss again to evenly coat the fries.
Step 9
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the potatoes out in a single layer, making sure they are not overcrowded.
Step 10
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, remove from the oven, toss the fries gently, and return to bake for another 10-15 minutes until golden and crispy.
Step 11
In a small skillet over low heat, add a splash of olive oil and sauté the minced garlic until fragrant and lightly golden, about 1-2 minutes. Be careful not to burn.
Step 12
Remove the fries from the oven and toss them with the sautéed garlic and chopped fresh parsley.
Step 13
Serve immediately for best results, accompanied by your favorite dipping sauce or as a delicious side dish.
