Oven Fries

I love making oven fries, they are so simple, delicious and the healthier route to go (as compared to deep fried or battered). I searched for a fry recipe several years ago and found one (now whenever I look I can find hundreds all just different variations of the same thing) that sounded really good, so I made them and haven't stopped making them since (picture me in Taiwan cooking them every other Sunday on a teeny tiny toaster oven).

Oven Fries
Potatoes
Vegetable Oil
Salt, to taste
Pepper, to taste
Garlic Salt, Mrs. Dash, Johnny's Seasoning, or something similar

  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. Scrub potatoes well and cut into 1/2 inch thick fries.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, toss potatoes with oil, salt, pepper, and other seasonings. Spread on baking sheet in one layer.
  3. Bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven (turn once about half-way through), until potatoes are tender and browned. Serve immediately.

These fries are great served by themselves but added fry sauce makes them even better.

Fry Sauce
(all of these measurements aren't precise, add a little here and there until you get a taste that you like)
1/3 cup Ketchup
2/3 cup Mayonnaise (or Miracle Whip works too)
1/8 cup BBQ Sauce
