Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 teaspoons Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoons Cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped)
- 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 clove Garlic (minced)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash and scrub the potatoes well. Leave the skins on for extra texture and flavor.
Cut each potato into evenly sized wedges about 1/2 inch thick to ensure even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, ground cumin, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Stir to create a seasoning mixture.
Add the potato wedges to the bowl and toss until they are evenly coated with the seasoning mixture.
Spread the seasoned potato wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, making sure they are not overcrowded.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, flipping the fries halfway through to ensure even browning. They should be golden and crispy when done.
While the fries are baking, prepare the aioli by mixing mayonnaise, lemon juice, and minced garlic in a small bowl. Stir well and set aside.
Once the fries are done, remove them from the oven and sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley for a burst of color and freshness.
Serve the Spanish-style oven fries hot along with the garlic-lemon aioli for dipping. Enjoy!
