How to Choose Potatoes
Selecting the right potatoes to make chips or fries is essential as everyone loves to eat crisp texture. Even if you are baking, potatoes' quality and texture make a big difference. I prefer to use Russet potatoes famous as Idaho potatoes in the United States. It has a brown textured little dirty look but the flash is starchy, creamy, and dry. Mostly recommended for baking, frying, and mashing. As a substitute, you can also use Yukon Gold. In the UK, you can take Maris Piper or King Edward.
Making oven-baked french fries are a super easy and quick idea. For this, just need to cut potatoes in fries shape, wash and tap to dry them. Sprinkle salt and peppers, drizzle oil and mix well. Keep it in a preheated oven for 30 minutes to bake. As it gets nice and crispy golden brown color, take it out! and enjoy with your favorite dip.
Tips to Make Crispy Oven Fries
Many people complain that the french fries get soggy and don't show crispy texture. Here are some key tips that will help you to get crispy french fries ever.
- Use starchy potatoes for baking.
- Always make sure that your potatoes are dry before going into the oven. If the potatoes are wet or showing water then it will form steam that will make them soft.
- Always drizzle some oil on potatoes or a baking sheet to maintain a crispy texture while baking.
- Never overcrowd the potatoes in your baking tray. Make sure to keep them aligned with some space.
- Don't forget to preheat the oven. If the temperature is down in the oven then the potatoes will become soggy.
- Always lined the tray with Aluminum foil or parchment paper to avoid sticking on the tray surface.
