Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Large russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Sea salt
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Wash the russet potatoes thoroughly and peel them if desired, although the skin contributes additional flavor and nutrition.
Using a mandoline slicer with a waffle blade setting, carefully cut the potatoes into 1/4-inch thick waffle slices. If you do not have a mandoline, you can use a knife to cut evenly thick slices, ensuring the classic waffle shape by turning the potatoes 90 degrees after each slice.
Place the waffle-cut potatoes in a large bowl. Add olive oil, sea salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Toss the potatoes until they are evenly coated with the oil and seasoning.
Arrange the seasoned potato slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Ensure they are not overlapping to allow for even cooking and maximum crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Remove the baking sheet and flip the fries over using a spatula to ensure both sides get crispy and golden brown.
Return the fries to the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes or until they reach your desired level of crispiness.
Remove the waffle fries from the oven and allow them to cool slightly on the baking sheet for a few minutes before serving.
Serve the vegan waffle fries immediately while hot and crispy. Enjoy them with your favorite vegan dipping sauce or alongside your favorite meal.
