Categories Potato Side Fourth of July Kid-Friendly Backyard BBQ

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

4 or 5 medium potatoes
1 tbsp salt
1 tbsp cornstarch
1 egg white
1 clove of garlic, finely minced
1 tsp sriracha (or more/less depending on preference)
1-2 tsp thyme leaves (fresh or dried)
2-3 tbsp olive oil
salt and pepper for seasoning

Steps:

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C), line a large, rimmed baking tray with parchment paper, and lightly grease with some of the olive oil. Wash the potatoes to remove any dirt (leave as much skin on them as poss.). Halve the potatoes lengthways and place into a medium pot of cold water, add the salt and bring to a boil. Cook for 6-8 minutes to parboil the potatoes. Drain the potatoes and leave in the colander for 5 minutes so they can dry off. Slice each potato-half lengthways into 4 wedges. Place into a large bowl, sprinkle over the cornstarch and toss with your hands to coat (see notes).

Tips:

Choose the right potatoes: Russet potatoes are the best choice for oven fries because they are starchy and have a high solids content, which means they will become crispy when baked.
Cut the potatoes into even-sized pieces: This will help them cook evenly.
Soak the potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes before baking: This will help to remove excess starch and make the fries crispier.
Toss the potatoes with olive oil, garlic, thyme, salt, and pepper: This will help to flavor the fries and make them crispy.
Bake the fries at a high temperature (425 degrees F) for 20-25 minutes: This will help to create a crispy exterior and a fluffy interior.
Shake the fries halfway through baking: This will help to ensure that they cook evenly.
Serve the fries immediately with your favorite dipping sauce: Ketchup, ranch dressing, or garlic aioli are all popular options.

Conclusion:

Garlic Thyme Oven Fries are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. They are crispy, flavorful, and addictive. So next time you are looking for a tasty and satisfying snack, give these fries a try. You won't be disappointed.
