Ingredients
Baked Fries:
- 2 large Russet (baking) potatoes
- 1 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder Or swap favorite seasoning
- 2 teaspoons salt
Spicy Yogurt Sauce (Optional):
- ½ cup plain yogurt (whole milk preferred)
- 2 teaspoons favorite (mild) hot sauce I used Cholula. Use more or less hot sauce depending on heat level of the hot sauce
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400ºF.
- Cut the potatoes into long slices, about ¼" wide and deep.
- Lay the fries in a single layer on an unlined baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder.
- Bake fries for 20 minutes, and then turn the fries. Bake 10-15 more minutes. (Bake time will depend on how crispy you want your fries.)
- Remove fries from the oven, and sprinkle with salt.
- If making sauce, mix yogurt and hot sauce together with a spoon.
- Serve hot with sauce (or with your prefered dip).
Notes
Recipe is easily doubled or tripled for a crowd.
Seasoning adaption: Try swapping garlic powder for your favorite spice blend.
- I love these fries with Old Bay seasoning.
- If using a spice blend with elements that will burn easily (like Trader Joe's Everything Bagel or their Nori Komi Furikake Japanese blend), add the spice with the salt after cooking.
