Oven-Roasted Fries

Rich and buttery Yukon Golds are my potato of choice when making these substantial fries, but you can definitely use Russets if you’d rather. Should you decide to season the oven fries with one of the seasoning mixes, do so before roasting. The flavor of the spices will deepen with baking and give the fries a really great texture.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    serves 4

Ingredients

5 large Yukon Gold potatoes, well scrubbed
1/4 cup canola oil
1 tablespoon kosher salt
3 tablespoons seasoning mix (pages 117 to 119; optional)

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Place a large rimmed baking sheet in the oven to heat for 10 minutes.

    Step 2

    Meanwhile, slice each potato lengthwise into 8 slices. Put the potato slices in a large bowl, add the oil, salt, and seasoning mix, if using, and toss to coat the potatoes evenly.

    Step 3

    Remove the baking sheet from the oven and add the potatoes in an even layer. Bake the potatoes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through, about 35 minutes. Serve hot.
