Original Recipe from Rachael Ray.

Makes 6 servings

Ingredients

6 medium starchy potatoes, peeled
Olive oil
Salt
Pepper
Herbs and spices of your choice

Directions

Preheat oven to 400F.
Arrange wire racks over two baking sheets.
Cut the potatoes into 1/4" thick fries. According to Rachael, the thinner they are the crispier they'll be.
In a large bowl, drizzle the fries with a bit of olive oil and give them a toss. Season with salt and pepper, then spread the fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets (racks).
Bake for 30 minutes. Remove the fries and increase the oven to 425F. Transfer the fries to a bowl and toss with spices of choice then place back on the racks and bake for another 15-20 minutes or until crispy and brown.
