HOME MADE GOLDEN FRIES

HOME MADE GOLDEN FRIES

Who can resist fries? These are made using spray oil so you can cut down on the amount of fat, making it a guilt-free indulgence. (I pour olive oil in a disused spray container since it’s cheaper than buying store-bought spray oils.)
Serves 4
3-4 large potatoes,
sliced into fries
Olive oil spray
(or other nonstick
cooking spray)
Paprika (optional)
Sea salt

Preheat the halogen oven using the preheat setting, or set the temperature to 425°F.
Put the potatoe slices in a bowl of water for a few minutes. Drain, then steam or boil for 5 minutes.
Meanwhile, spray the baking sheet with olive oil. (I use the browning tray for this because it helps to brown the fries all over.) Drain the potatoes and put them on the baking sheet in a single layer. Spray with a little more olive oil and sprinkle with paprika (this is optional but it helps to create a golden color and nice flavor).
Put on the low rack and bake for 10-15 minutes, then turn the fries over, spray them again and bake for another 10-15 minutes, or until they are cooked. The cooking times depend on the thickness of the fries.
To serve, sprinkle with sea salt.
