OVEN-BAKED CURLY FRIES



Oven-Baked Curly Fries image

These oven fries crisp up without the greasy mess of deep-frying. Plus they're a bit easier and faster to make than traditional hand-cut fries thanks to the quick work of the spiralizer. Just watch the thickness: cut too thin, the fries will burn easily.

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pound russet potatoes (2 medium or 1 large)
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon smoked paprika
¼ teaspoon onion powder
¼ teaspoon ground pepper
¼ teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Clean potatoes and peel, if desired. Using a medium spiralizer blade, spiralize the potatoes. Cut the spirals into 3-inch lengths. Place in a bowl of cool water and let soak for 20 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Drain the potatoes and pat dry. Place the potatoes back in the dried-out bowl and add oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, onion powder, pepper and salt; toss until the potatoes are well coated.
  • Divide the potatoes between the baking sheets, spreading into as single a layer as possible. Place both pans in the oven and bake for 20 minutes. Stir the fries and remove any that are golden and crisp. Continue baking the remaining fries, stirring and removing any fries that are done every 5 minutes, until all the fries are crisp, 10 to 15 minutes longer. Baking time will depend on the thickness of your spiralized potatoes.

TORNADO POTATOES RECIPE BY TASTY



Tornado Potatoes Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: medium Yukon potatoes, butter, grated parmesan cheese, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, salt, Chopped fresh parsley, wooden skewers

Provided by Merle O'Neal

Categories     Appetizers

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 medium Yukon potatoes
¼ cup butter, melted
1 cup grated parmesan cheese, plus more for serving
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon paprika
1 teaspoon salt
Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish
2 wooden skewers

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325ºF (160ºC).
  • Microwave the potatoes for 1-1 ½ minutes, then leave in the microwave for a few minutes to cool down and soften. Insert a wooden skewer into the bottom of each potato and gently push it all the way through the top. Working in a spiral motion from one side to the other, hold a sharp, thin knife at an angle and cut in the opposite direction you are turning the skewered potato, cutting all the way down to the skewer. Take your time and work to make thin, even spiral all the way down the potato.
  • Gently fan out each potato down the length of the skewer, until you have even gaps between the slices. Brush the melted butter all over the potatoes.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the Parmesan cheese, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and salt. Place each skewered potato over the bowl and sprinkle half of the spice mixture over each potato until they are entirely coated. Carefully set the potatoes on a baking pan, letting the skewers rest on sides of the pan so that the potatoes are suspended.
  • Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until nicely browned. Garnish with additional Parmesan and parsley. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
  • Enjoy!

Categories     Potato

Time 1h

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 medium potatoes
1/4 cup butter or 1/4 cup margarine
1 clove garlic, minced
seasoning (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400.
  • Using an Apple/Peeler/Corer/Slicer, core and slice potatoes to create long spirals.
  • Slice “cores” into ¼” rounds.
  • Place potatoes in a shallow baking dish that has been lightly sprayed.

  • I double this recipe for my family.
  • Bake for 40 to 45 minutes.
  • Potatoes should be tender and slightly crisp.

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Yukon Gold, Russet, and Red potatoes are ideal for curly fries due to their firm texture and low starch content.
  • Cut the potatoes evenly: Consistent-sized potato strips will ensure even cooking and prevent some pieces from becoming overcooked while others remain undercooked.
  • Soak the potatoes in water: Soaking the potato strips in cold water for 30 minutes removes excess starch, resulting in crispier fries.
  • Dry the potatoes thoroughly: Pat the potato strips dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels to remove excess moisture, which can prevent them from becoming soggy during cooking.
  • Use high-quality oil: Opt for an oil with a high smoke point, such as grapeseed, canola, or sunflower oil, to prevent burning or smoking during frying.
  • Fry the potatoes in batches: Avoid overcrowding the pan or fryer basket to ensure even cooking and prevent the potatoes from sticking together.
  • Season the fries immediately: While the fries are still hot, sprinkle them with your desired seasonings, such as salt, pepper, garlic powder, or paprika, for maximum flavor.
