Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil

- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Step 2
Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into even-sized sticks or wedges.
Step 3
Place the cut potatoes in a bowl of cold water and soak for 10 minutes to remove some of the starch.
Step 4
Drain and pat the potatoes dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Step 5
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, salt, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, and black pepper.
Step 6
Add the dried potatoes to the bowl and toss well to coat evenly with the spice mixture.
Step 7
Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the potatoes out in a single layer, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Remove the baking sheet, flip the fries, and return to the oven for another 15 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
Step 9
Once baked, remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle with lemon juice and chopped fresh parsley.
Step 10
Serve warm and enjoy your sugar-free peri peri fries!
