Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon Garam masala
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro
- 1 teaspoon Chaat masala (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash and peel the Russet potatoes. Cut each potato into evenly sized fries, approximately 1/4 inch thick.
In a large mixing bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, ground cumin, ground coriander, garam masala, paprika, turmeric powder, salt, and black pepper.
Add the cut potatoes to the mixing bowl and toss well to coat evenly with the spice mixture.
Spread the seasoned fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring that they are not overlapping.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then remove and flip the fries using a spatula for even cooking.
Return the fries to the oven and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Remove from the oven and sprinkle with chopped fresh cilantro and chaat masala if using, for an extra kick of flavor.
Serve hot with your favorite vegan dipping sauce.
