Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Russet potatoes are a good choice for country fries because they are starchy and hold their shape well when baked.
- Cut the potatoes evenly: This will help them cook evenly.
- Toss the potatoes with oil and seasonings: This will help them crisp up and develop flavor.
- Don't overcrowd the baking sheet: This will prevent the fries from cooking evenly.
- Bake the fries until they are golden brown and crispy: This usually takes about 20-25 minutes.
- Serve the fries immediately: They are best when they are hot and crispy.
