I love french fries.  They’re right up there with chocolate for me.  Fries?  Yes please!  But they’re so not healthy…

So here’s my attempt to make them a little healthier:

  • 2 Russet potatoes, cleaned and cut into wedges (slice in half long way, then half the half again, then those in half again)
  • 2 TBSP vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp dried rosemary coarsely chopped
  • 1 /2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp minced onions
  • 2 TBSP Parmesan cheese
  • 1/3 cup of panko bread crumbs

Preheat the oven to 400.  BTW, make sure to clean those potatoes — check out the before and after photo!

Then coat the potato wedges very well in the vegetable oil.  Mix the other ingredients (rosemary, garlic powder, onions, Parmesan cheese, and bread crumbs) in a separate bowl.  Now put the potato wedges (making sure they’re not touching) on aluminum foil on a baking sheet (or I used my cast iron skillet).

Bake for 20 minutes and then flip.  Then bake for another 20 minutes or until they’re crispy.
