This recipe calls for a very few ingredients, and they are things that we almost always have at home. The fries can be eaten as an appetizer, as a snack, or as a side dish with other things, along with a hamburger, hot dog, or whatever we want.

Making fries or French fries, when they are fried, is a bit of a disaster sometimes, because the kitchen gets very messy, which with this recipe does not happen. Besides, we could say that they are a less greasy version, because they are precisely made in the oven.

The spice we put in this recipe is paprika. Here, in fact, you can also add a little cayenne pepper, but that is optional, because many people can’t stand any kind of spice or chile.

We love it, because it is a simple and great way to eat potatoes, which some people sometimes don’t know how to cook or what to di with them.

Now, as for the type of potato to use, we always prefer, for this kind of things, to use the special ones for frying. This type is usually much more yellow in color than others, and they are a little harder, which means that they withstand any kind of cooking much better.

For the fries to come out quickly and not take so long in the oven, we recommend cutting them quite thin, in sticks like normal French fries, and so they don’t take so long in the oven.
