Vegan Crispy French Fries
Incredibly crispy, tasty baked french fries can be made without frying! However, getting crispy french fries from the oven takes a little bit more than coating the fries with a bit of oil. These crispy french fries are baked in the oven with cornstarch, steam, and oil. A great side dish. Seasoned with French Fry seasoning.
Ingredients
- 1 pound Yukon gold potatoes
- 3 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1/4 cup of water
- 1-2 sprays with cooking spray
- 1-2 tablespoons French fries seasoning
Preparation
- Peel potatoes and wash in cold water. Dry the potatoes with a clean kitchen towel. Slice into fries
- Put cornstarch and water in a bowl and stir to completely dissolve the cornstarch
- Slowly warm in the pan until the cornstarch has a pudding-like consistency or heat in the microwave in 25-sec bursts
- When done add the fries and cover them in the mixture. You can use a spoon or your hands to cover the fries
- Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray before adding the vegetable oil. Move the baking sheet around so the oil can cover the baking sheet
- Put the potatoes on the baking and leave space. Do not crowd or overlap the fries
- Take a piece of aluminum foil and spray with cooking spray. Cover the baking sheet with the foil
- Preheat the oven to 425℉. Cook the fries in the oven lowest rack if possible for 12 minutes
- Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes. Take the tray out of the oven and flip the fries to bake the other side as well for 8-10 minutes
- Take out of the oven and sprinkle with salt or French fries seasoning
