Directions

Description - Step 1

Step 1: Preheat and prepare the baking sheet

Preheat your oven to 220°C and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminium foil. Cut 4-5 large russet potatoes into evenly-sized fries, soak them in cold water for 30 minutes to remove excess starch, then drain and pat completely dry. Arrange the potato strips in a single layer without overcrowding – use two baking sheets if needed.
