SWEET AND SPICY OVEN FRIES

Steps:

• Note: These ingredient amounts are to taste.
• You may use more or less of the seasonings to fit your tastebuds.
• Adjust the recipe to fit how many people you'll be serving.
• 2 large potatoes should be enough to serve two people as a side dish or snack.
• I also used non-stick cooking spray instead of oil because I have IBS and have to watch my fat intake.
• My IBS tolerated the potato skin too, although normally I stay away from potato skin (which I love).
• Scrub the baking potatoes and leave the skin on.
• You can peel these if you want, I didn't have a vegetable peeler and I can't peel skin well with a paring knife, and I like the taste of the skin for these fries.
• Cut potatoes lengthwise.
• Then lay the halves flat side down and cut into 1/4 inch slices.
• Then cut the slices so they are about 1/2 inch wide.
• Place the potato pieces in a bowl with lid (I used a large Gladware bowl).
• Mix in a separate small bowl all the spices.
• Spray the potatoes in the bowl generously with nonstick cooking spray.
• Sprinkle the spices over the Pam-coated potatoes and cover bowl with lid.
• Shake bowl vigorously to distribute spices.
• (It's probably even easier to use a large ziplock bag, but I didn't have one at the time I made this recipe up.).
• Spray a foil-lined baking sheet with more nonstick cooking spray.
• Spread french fries in one layer on baking sheet.
• Place in a 425-450 degree oven and bake for 15-25 minutes. If you want crispier fries, try the 450 degree and the longer time, and/or cut the fries a bit thinner, just watch so they don't burn. That's why the times are kind of approximate so you can watch them and turn them when they are browned/crisped to your liking.
• Turn fries over with a spatula and return to the oven for another 15-25 minutes until fries are browned and crisped to your likeness.
• You can probably add other spices, but I used what I had onhand since I couldn't get to the store.
• If you substitute with regular chili powder, increase the amount you use if you like spicier fries.
• You may need to adjust oven times based on size/shape/thickness of fries, altitude, and how well-done you like your fries.
• I like mine crispy so I cooked mine about 25-30 minutes each side.
• These tasted great served alone, but feel free to dip them in your choice of sauce.
