Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly. Leave the skin on for a rustic texture or peel them, if preferred.
Cut the potatoes into evenly sized sticks, about 1/4-inch thick, to ensure even cooking.
Place the cut potatoes in a large bowl and soak them in cold water for 20 minutes. This helps to remove excess starch and makes the fries crispier.
Drain the potatoes and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
Return the dried potato sticks to the bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Toss to coat evenly.
In a small bowl, mix sumac, chili powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and salt. Sprinkle this spice mixture over the potatoes and toss again to distribute the seasoning evenly.
Spread the seasoned potato sticks in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure they are not overcrowded to allow for even cooking and crisping.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove the tray, flip the fries using a spatula, and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
Remove from the oven and let the fries cool slightly. Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for a burst of freshness.
Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce or on their own as a deliciously spiced snack or side dish.
