Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Cut them into even-sized strips, approximately 1/4 inch thick, to ensure they cook evenly.
Soak the cut potatoes in a bowl of cold water for about 10 minutes. This helps to remove excess starch and makes the fries crispier.
Drain the potatoes and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel to remove any excess moisture.
In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, salt, ground coriander, ground cumin, turmeric powder, paprika, chili powder, and garlic powder.
Add the dried potatoes to the bowl and toss well to ensure the potatoes are evenly coated with the oil and spice mixture.
Spread the fries out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure not to overcrowd them.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, turning the fries halfway through the cooking time, until they are golden brown and crispy.
Once cooked, remove the fries from the oven and garnish with freshly chopped cilantro before serving warm.
