  1. After cutting your fries into whatever shape you like , try putting into large enough bowl And drizzling with canola, mixing them up and then sprinkling enough McCormack's grill seasoning all over and mix again . Get your bake sheet and place a piece of baker's parchment on it then spread the fries and bake st about 425 for about 35 to 40 minutes.. check at about 10 to 15 minutes and turn and rotate the pan. It depends if you like match sticks or steak or regular size how long they take so bake time will vary.
     
  2. This is the only recipe I have found that boils the potatoes first. It is the KEY to a crunchy outside and fluffy (not soggy) inside for the fries. This recipe gets an A+ for breaking the key to homemade fries!
     
  3. I use Slap Ya Mama, a Cajun blend of salt, red and black ground peppers. It's great on fries and most everything else!!
     
  4. The family loved these. Although fried, it didn't taste oily at all. Easy to make and with excellent results. It took longer than expected for fries to brown and crisp up, but worth the while nonetheless! (Remember to use/pick potatoes of similar size so that they cook evenly while boiling.) Thanks for posting!
