Oven Roasted Frites

Who says that french fries can't be good for you?
Now friends, here is a guilt-free recipe that you can use for those movie nights, entertaining, or dinner for two.


INGREDIENTS
2 tbsp olive oil
1 pound large baking potatoes
fleur de sel
pepper

INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F
Brush a heavy large baking pan with olive oil
Peel the potatoes and cut them to 1/3 inch thickness all around
Toss the cut potatoes in a bowl with olive oil and then spread them on the baking pan.
Bake until golden brown and crispy on the edges, about 35 minutes, stirring 3 times
Let cool, sprinkle in fleur de sel and pepper to taste, and serve.



For optional flavors, instead of fleur de sel, i like to use crushed garlic salt.
Another substitution is to use Herbes de Provence which is a mixture of herbs which typically contains savory, fennel, basil, thyme, and lavender.

Happy Roasting!
