I’ve been trying to make “baked fries” for ages, and I think the salt water soaking and drying is what I’ve been missing. I’ve always just cut them up and stuck ‘em in the oven. My local fruit store has lovely potatoes and I always buy way too many. This is an awesome way to use them up. I don’t know a single human that doesn’t LOVE fries.
The Mandolin is a KILLER for this. It literally warps time.

The reason they don’t taste the same is because McDonald’s deep fries the french fries. This is the healthier way (baking), so they won’t taste the same.

Just made this recipe tonight for myself and my fiancee. He usually hates the store-bought frozen french fries, but he ate these all up! Thanks so much!

i just made this… DELICIOUS!!!!!!!!!! one word though. At first I just put them on the pan and they started to stick. BUT luckily I payed attention to the “turn periodically” and I caught it in time. SO what i did is I put foil down on the pan (I use a pizza pan) and then I brushed the pan with olive oil and then i transferred my potatoes and it saved them. it turned out SOOO GOOOOOOD. SO CRISPY. i think these are more crispier then frying it. I followed all the directions. I brushed the fried with olive oil to cover all the surfaces lightly. then i put some salt and pepper. you can also add a little feta cheese and rosemary at about half way to make them EVEN MORE DELICIOUS. thank you.. MUCH EASIER than frying it and healthier since its olive oil and not drenched in animal fat…yuk. wow i just notice this post is from 2008. greetings from 2011! lol.
