Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Russet potatoes
- 1 can Olive oil spray
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Chili powder
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Rinse and scrub the russet potatoes under cold water to remove any dirt. Leave the skins on for added texture and nutrients.
Using a mandoline slicer equipped with a waffle blade, slice the potatoes into waffle shapes. Adjust the thickness according to your preference, but aim for slices about 1/4-inch thick for optimal crispiness.
In a small bowl, combine the garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, onion powder, and chili powder. Mix well to create the seasoning blend.
Spread the waffle-cut potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Lightly spray the potatoes with olive oil spray to help them crisp up in the oven.
Sprinkle the seasoning blend evenly over the potatoes, making sure each piece is well coated.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes. Flip the fries halfway through cooking to ensure even browning.
Remove the fries from the oven once they are golden brown and crispy. Allow them to cool slightly on the baking sheet before serving.
Serve the low-fat seasoned waffle fries immediately, and enjoy them as a delightful side dish or a standalone snack.
