Calories: 159kcal
Equipment
- large sheet pan
Ingredients
- 2 pounds russet potatoes
- ¼ cooking oil
- salt
- ½ cup sour cream
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- 4 Tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
For the Fries:
- Heat your oven to 450℉ and then slice the potatoes into fries about ⅓ inch think.
- Fill your sink with water and soak the fries in it for at least 20 minutes (this removes the starch which helps the fries get crispy)
- Strain the fries in a colander and then dry with a kitchen towel. The more dry your fries are, the crispier they will get.
- Place the fries in a large bowl, pour in some cooking oil and then toss to coat. You don't need a lot of oil, just enough to coat the fries. Probably about ¼ cup.
- Spread the fries out across 2 large parchment lined baking sheets. Try where possible to have the fries not touching each other.
- Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes, taking them out once after 15 minutes to check on them and turn the fries.
For the sauce:
- Combine the sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and parsley
