After reading the other reviews, I also increased the seasoning and sprayed the fries with olive oil spray. This just didn't work out for us. The flour just really shines through. Maybe if the flour was just left out and they just had seasoning on them?

Great textures and nice coating. I increased the seasonings, added 1/2 tsp. garlic powder, and sprayed very generously with cooking spray, but still got a lot of raw flour taste. I'll try decreasing the flour next time.

I really loved this method of making a nice crispy coating on the fries. I used Yukon Gold potatoes and cut them into thick fries - but thinner than wedges. The spices weren't overly flavorful to us, so next time I will just use my own combination of seasoning. After reading the previous reviewer mention that she had some dry flour spots on the fries I liberally sprayed them with Crisco cooking spray before baking and then about halfway through the baking time I drizzled on a little olive oil and then flipped the fries around a bit.

Delicious low-fat fries! What a great alternative to deep-frying! The seasonings are wonderful and I think next time I'll up all of the seasonings and herbs; we could have used a bit more. And I think next time instead of drizzling the oil over I'll spray an even coating. I found some of the fries had a bit of raw flour flavour...easily fixed with a more even distribution of oil. The cook time and temperature was perfect. Thanks, Decadent! I'll be making these again :)
