A few nights ago I was in the mood for a baked potato, but
at the same time I was in the mood for French fries. As much as I wanted a
baked potato I didn’t want to have the hassle of the baked potato. No matter
what I knew we were going to have some sort of potatoes for dinner because they
sounded so good.
I threw this together at the last minute and I must admit it
turned out great. The key is making sure that your potatoes get nice and
crispy. The browner the better because it add extra flavor. This is something
you can you can easily adjust the size based on your needs at the moment.
I think it would also be really great with season salt added
to it before baking!
