Ingredients:

  • 2 large potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch thick fries
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the potatoes with the olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  4. Spread the potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  5. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the fries are golden brown and crispy.
  6. Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.

Tips:

  • For extra crispy fries, soak the cut potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes before baking. Then, drain them well and pat them dry with a paper towel before tossing them with the olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  • To make sure your fries cook evenly, don't overcrowd the baking sheet. If necessary, bake the fries in two batches.
  • If you don't have parchment paper, you can grease the baking sheet with a little bit of oil before spreading the potatoes out.
  • Serve your oven-baked french fries with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ketchup, mayonnaise, ranch dressing, or barbecue sauce.
