A so much more healthier alternative to french fries - and tastes equally as good too if not better! Inspired by Rachael, thelazychef.wordpress.com

What you need:

  • 3 or 4 US potatoes
  • Salt
  • Extra virgin olive oil

Directions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 220 degrees celcius. Peel and cut the potatoes into wedges - quarter them up, then half the quarter.
  2. Put them into a pot of water to get rid of extra starch. Soak for 1o minutes, rinse and drain well.
  3. Return the potatoes into a pot on stove with enough water to cover them. Add 1/2 tsp salt and bring to boil. Once it boils, reduce heat & simmer for 3 minutess. Drain the potatoes well & pat dry on kitchen paper towels.
  4. Place the potatoes strips on a large baking sheet; do not overcrowd. Sprinkle olive oil generously over them. Gently toss the potatoes to mix well with the oil.
  5. Bake in the oven for 15 minutes. Remove baking sheet and turn the wedges over & continue to roast for another 15 mins or until it´s well browned & crisp.
  6. Remove from oven & immediately sprinkle with salt over the hot wedges & serve immediately with ketchup or mayonnaise.
