How do you make French fries by only boiling without oil frying?
Ingredients:
- Potatoes
- Salt
- Water
- Your choice of seasonings (e.g., paprika, garlic powder, herbs)
Instructions:
Prepare the Potatoes:
- Wash and peel the potatoes.
- Cut them into even strips, similar to traditional French fries.
Boil the Potatoes:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
- Add a pinch of salt to the boiling water.
- Add the potato strips to the boiling water.
- Boil the potatoes until they are tender but not falling apart (approximately 8-10 minutes).
Drain and Season:
- Carefully drain the boiled potatoes using a colander.
- Allow them to sit for a few minutes to let the excess water evaporate.
Season and Crisp:
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Spread the boiled potato strips on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Season them with your choice of seasonings.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes or until they start to crisp up. Flip them halfway through the baking time to ensure even crisping.
Serve:
- Once they are crispy and golden, remove them from the oven.
- Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
This method will give you a healthier alternative to traditional French fries, with a crispy exterior and tender interior, without using oil for frying. Enjoy your meal!
