Baked Garlic Cilantro Fries

A great way to enjoy a craving for fries- flavourful, crispy- BAKED!

Note: best way to get crispy baked fries is to soak cut fries in icy salt water before baking (blot dry before baking)


Ingredients:

6 yukon gold or red potatoes or 3 russet potatoes
2 tbsp oil
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2-3/4 tsp salt
pinch of pepper
1/4 cup chopped cilantro


Directions:

Cut potatoes (skin on) in fries.  Use salt water bath if desired (you should!)- then dry. Toss with oil and seasonings.  Place on a rack on top of a baking sheet or else on a greased baking sheet.  Bake at 425 for 20-30 minutes.  If you are using a rack, there's no need to flip the fries.  If you are using a greased sheet, check every 7-10 minutes to toss to make sure they are baking evenly and not sticking.  When they are done, toss with cilantro and any extra salt if you think they need it.

Makes 3 servings
