Equipment
Ingredients
- 6 potatoes
- ¼ tsp. turmeric
- 3-5 tbsp. olive oil
- ¼ tsp. crushed chili spice
- A pinch of kosher salt
- Coarse black pepper (to taste)
Instructions
- Give the potatoes a good clean, then peel them off and cut them into your favorite french fry slices.
- Fill a pot with water and add a quarter teaspoon of turmeric, then add your fries.
- Heat the water until it boils, and keep it boiling for 5 more minutes with the fries inside.
- Remove your fries from the water and place them on a baking pan, then drizzle them with olive oil.
- Season with freshly ground pepper, kosher salt, and crushed chili.
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and bake your fries. Keep opening the oven to move your fries around. This’ll ensure that they’re cooked evenly.
- Keep checking the fries with a knife. When they reach that soft consistency, it’s time to get them out. This usually takes around 15–20 minutes.
- Enjoy!
