I've made Steak Fries before, well french fries...but not in years and years. I thought I'd just heat the oil in a pan or a pot, throw in the pre-cut potatoes (I cut them the other night when I made the mashed potatoes), and voila! French Fries! Then I was chatting with the lovely VLynn today who said her mom used to make them in the oven. Of course it then occured to me that they might be healthier in the oven. So off to google I went to see some recipes, when I realized it would also be a lot easier clean-up in the oven.
Ingredients:
- Potato, cut to look like steak fries.
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- Salt
It was pretty easy, as the potatoes were already cut. It turns out I should have left them in a "cold water bath" for the few days, but they were still fine. Anyway, so I cold watered them, rinsed them, threw them in a bowl with the olive oil and salt (you can use any spices you want but I just appreciate sodium). Then onto the baking sheet and into the oven they go! Voila! Like magic in 25 minutes they're done!
And thus, at this point of course, my chicken and edamame was reheated, and using ketchup I ate the whole meal!
I give this foodsperiment a +7 for being so easy, +5 for being easy to clean, +5 for finishing my meal, and I give myself a -3 for eating them without taking a photograph. Happy sperimenting!
