  • No fryer? No problem. Jacques Pépin picked up this oven-baked french fries recipe from his daughter, Claudine. It has less calories than traditional fries and you don't have to stand over a fryer. Just pop them in the oven at 425 degrees for 45 minutes. Jacques goes the rustic "skin-on" route (aka "In-n-Out style") but feel free to peel according to your preference. Happy cooking!
    What you'll need:
    1.5 lbs potatoes, 2 - 3 tbsp oil (jacques uses peanut), 1 tsp paprika, 1 tsp herb de provence, salt

    I do basically identical chips but I parboil first then shake through a colander then do the seasoning because I like the fluffy edges (that become nice crispy edges), my oven has an "air fryer" rack in the top, I make them when I'm cooking something else as a roast so it doesn't matter if any oil drips. Very nice. Don't have to parboil them though, and most of the time I don't bother haha.

    To get these crispy, try baking them twice. When they start to sizzle, turn off the oven, open the door and let them cool off. Switch the oven on again later and they will crisp up nicely.

      As traditionally they need to be fried twice, once at a lower temperature and the second at a hotter temp to crisp them up, that makes sense.

    • @wrxtuan
      @wrxtuan Год назад +2

      If you have one, place the potatoes on top of a wire rack placed on top of the baking sheet. You need the air flow on all sides to prevent the sogginess. These potatoes seems better suited for using an air fryer for that reason.

    • @m.theresa1385
      @m.theresa1385 Год назад

      I parboil, then finish them in the oven - lastly under the broiler for crispness. Often as not though I make flavour full smashed potatoes instead. Deliciously crispy outside and a bit of softness within. They do well in my biggish toaster oven
