INGREDIENTS
- 1 kg potatoes
- ¼ cup (65ml) olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
METHOD
- Peel the potatoes and cut them into sticks, as uniformly as possible. If desired, place them in a bowl of cold water for 20–30 minutes. This helps remove excess starch and makes them crispier.
- Drain them and dry them very well with a towel. This is one of the most important steps. If they have moisture, they won't get crispy.
- Pour in the olive oil and sprinkle with salt, paprika, and garlic. Stir to ensure the ingredients coat the potatoes well.
- Spread them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, in a single layer, without them touching each other.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C, ideally with fan assist, for about 40-45 minutes.
