Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Avocado oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Leave the skin on for added texture.
Step 3
Cut the potatoes into even-sized sticks about 1/4-inch thick to ensure they cook evenly.
Step 4
Soak the potato sticks in a large bowl of cold water for about 30 minutes to remove excess starch, which helps in making them crispy.
Step 5
After soaking, drain the potatoes and pat them completely dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Step 6
In a large bowl, combine the dried potato sticks with avocado oil, salt, garlic powder, paprika, and black pepper. Toss until the potatoes are evenly coated.
Step 7
Spread the potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets, ensuring they are not overcrowded. This allows the fries to bake evenly and become crispy.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then take the sheets out and flip the fries with a spatula.
Step 9
Return the baking sheets to the oven and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the fries are golden brown and crispy.
Step 10
Once baked, remove from the oven and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for a fresh flavor.
Step 11
Allow the fries to cool for a few minutes before serving as they crisp up further during cooling.
