Ingredients

  • 2 russet potatoes skins on
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil or canola oil
  • ½ teaspoon salt or to taste

Instructions

  • Scrub the potatoes and pat them dry. Slice into 3/8-inch thick French fries by first slicing potatoes into 3/8-inch thick slices and then cutting each slice into 3/8-inch thick fries.
  • Place the fries into a bowl, fill with cold water to cover the fries, and let soak for 15 minutes.*
  • Preheat oven to 425° F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Take the fries out of the water and dry them very well with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels. Place on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Drizzle the olive oil over the potatoes and sprinkle with the salt. Toss to evenly coat the potatoes with the oil and salt.
  • Arrange the potatoes in a single layer on the pan with a bit of room in between each French fry. This helps them to crisp up as they cook.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes, until golden brown and crispy.

Notes

  • If you are short on time, you can skip the soaking step. The fries will be slightly less crispy but still very delicious.
