Ingredients

• 4 large Russet potatoes
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 2 cups Chicken or beef broth (soy-free)
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Wash and peel the Russet potatoes. Cut them into evenly sized fries, about 1/4-inch thick for even cooking.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, toss the fries with olive oil, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 0.5 teaspoon of ground black pepper until evenly coated.

Step 4

Spread the fries out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring none overlap for crispiness.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the fries are golden brown and crispy.

Step 6

While the fries are baking, prepare the soy-free gravy. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter.

Step 7

Add the all-purpose flour to the saucepan, whisking continuously for 2-3 minutes to form a roux. It should be smooth and light brown.

Step 8

Gradually whisk in the soy-free broth, ensuring there are no lumps. Continue to whisk until the mixture thickens, about 5-7 minutes.

Step 9

Add garlic powder and onion powder to the gravy for flavor. Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more salt or pepper if needed.

Step 10

Once the fries are done, remove them from the oven and sprinkle with additional salt if desired.

Step 11

Transfer the fries to a serving plate or bowl and generously ladle the hot gravy over the top.

Step 12

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if using. Serve immediately and enjoy!
