Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Cut them into even-sized strips, approximately 1/4 inch thick, to ensure they cook evenly.
Step 3
Soak the cut potatoes in a bowl of cold water for about 10 minutes. This helps to remove excess starch and makes the fries crispier.
Step 4
Drain the potatoes and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel to remove any excess moisture.
Step 5
In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, salt, ground coriander, ground cumin, turmeric powder, paprika, chili powder, and garlic powder.
Step 6
Add the dried potatoes to the bowl and toss well to ensure the potatoes are evenly coated with the oil and spice mixture.
Step 7
Spread the fries out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure not to overcrowd them.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, turning the fries halfway through the cooking time, until they are golden brown and crispy.
Step 9
Once cooked, remove the fries from the oven and garnish with freshly chopped cilantro before serving warm.
