Introduction

This is a low-fat alternative to french fries This is a low-fat alternative to french fries
Number of Servings: 4

Ingredients

    3 cups diced red skin or Yukon gold potatoes
    1 tbsp dried basil
    1 tbsp dried oregano
    1 tsp garlic powder
    1 tsp paprika
    salt, to taste
    pepper, to taste
    Olive Oil Cooking Spray

Directions

Heat oven to 400* F. Wash and cube raw potatoes. I prefer either red skin or yukon gold and leave the skin on for additional fiber. Place potatoes in a single layer in a 9x13 cake pan (I use the kind that has a plastic lid to cover.) Spray potatoes with olive oil cooking spray for about 3 seconds. Sprinkle potatoes with dried basil and oregano, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and paprika. Place plastic lid over baking pan and shake vigorously to evenly distribute herbs and spices (holding the lid in place, just in case!) Remove the lid and place in hot oven until slightly browned.

I serve these alone or with ketchup and both kids and adults love them. They take away the fat and fuss of french fries and are a tasty alternative that will "trick" those who think anything healthy is bland. The cooking spray helps the browning process, adds a little "crunch" and holds the herbs and spices to the potatoes.

    For a little extra flavor, I add a T each of dried onion flakes and parmesan cheese to the herbs, spray potatoes and put all into a bag and shake b/4 placing on the baking pan. For a Southwest variation, I add a little red bell pepper and a T of Taco seasoning. - 7/21/16

    I have been making something similar to this for a while, but I cut into the shape of french fries. It's to the point where I can't even eat fast food fries at all, as I think they are too greasy. - 6/23/12

    DH and I really liked these-- I made them exactly as stated in the recipe, but with no salt or pepper til we each did our own at the table. Next time I'll add some more garlic. - 1/26/12

    Great! I thought it would be too heavy on the herbs, but it wasn't. I used onion powder instead of garlic, (preference). I put all the ingredients in a plastic bag (used a drizzle of olive oil instead of spray), twisted it shut, and shook it.
    Use parchment or additional oil for the pan.

    I used the recipe as is and we really liked it. It did take 40 mins to cook in the toaster oven so I would give an hour to prepare if you are trying to time a meal. I will definitely make again and like the idea of cutting into fries which might reduce cooking time. - 7/23/20

    I did wedges, put the whole thing in a lidded bowl and shook it, poured into the pan. NO salt though,, dietary restrictions. Marinara is a good alternative for dipping. - 6/28/20

    Mixed review here. Did not turn out crispy, but flavour was good. Hubby who doesn't usually like roast potatoes said they weren't bad (fairly high approval from him). Will try again - 4/26/20

    Sometimes when I'll be cooking potatoes for a short time, I'll par boil them so the insides will be cooked and fluffy. Then the cooking can brown the outsides quickly. - 3/10/18
