Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 4 medium russet potatoes
- 1 tablespoon avocado oil
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 0.5 teaspoon fresh rosemary finely chopped
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Wash your potatoes thoroughly under cool running water.
- Dry potatoes completely with a clean towel.
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (218°C).
- Peel the potatoes if desired.
- Cut the potatoes into fries approximately 3/8 inch thick.
- Toss the fries in a large bowl with avocado oil until evenly coated.
- Sprinkle half the salt and rosemary over the fries and toss. Add the remaining salt and rosemary and toss again to evenly season all fries.
- Arrange fries in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving space between fries for even crisping.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Halfway through, flip fries to ensure even cooking.
- Check fries for desired crispness. If needed, bake for an additional 5-10 minutes.
- Remove fries from oven, add extra salt if desired, and serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
Notes
These fries are best enjoyed fresh and hot. For extra crispiness, you can soak the cut potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes before preparation, then dry thoroughly.
