Good to Know
Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container up to 3 days. Reheat on a baking sheet at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes to restore crispness.
Cut potatoes and store in water up to 8 hours to prevent browning. Pat dry and proceed with tossing and baking when ready.
Serve hot as a side dish with burgers, grilled fish, or sandwiches.
Common Mistakes
Do not skip the single layer spread to avoid steaming; crowding the pan creates soft rather than browned fries.
Do not use waxy potatoes to avoid dense texture; starchy baking potatoes crisp better.
