Ah, french fries. The devil’s starchy fingers, as Mrs. Kim calls them. Fortunately for your heart, this recipe is actually healthy–you’re using the whole potato, including the nutritious skins, as well as coating them in some olive oil before baking them rather than deep-frying them. Of course, they’re still salty and, at least at my house, meet up with a little fry sauce at some point, but I try. I really do.
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly spray with cooking spray. Set aside.
Mix spices and olive oil and set aside. Cut potatoes into 8 wedges each and place in a medium mixing bowl.
Add seasonings and olive oil to the potato wedges…
toss to coat. Arrange the potato wedges on the foil, trying to keep them from touching if you can help it.
Bake in preheated oven for 45 minutes. Serve with a variety of dipping sauces–ketchup, fry sauce, aioli, honey mustard, Sriracha, ranch dressing, malt vinegar, basically whatever you love!
