These were great! I loved the garlic flavor with the fries! Mine got pretty crispy as I cut them very thin. I would maybe reduce the cook time a little or cut the fries a bit thicker next time. I love the fact that I made fries that didn't come out of the freezer section of the grocery store! I was out of fresh parmesan so used the stuff from the "green can", LOL. Still very tasty!

These are wonderful! I made them for an afternoon snack for me and my hubby. We both devoured them in no time. I cut mine pretty thin and they crisped up a lot, but I actually preferred the fries that were a little soft so next time I won't cut them as thin. The flavor is delicious! I reduced the garlic in half because I was afraid I'd have garlic breath for work tomorrow, and it still turned out nice and garlicky. Such a great recipe, thank you Redsie!

Really enjoyed the flavors of these potatoes. They turned out really crispy with loads of flavor. My problem was with the addition of the parmesan cheese. It just wadded up in a ball for some reason and didn't coat the fries. Next time I will add them to the top and let it melt then serve. Thanks Redsie.

Thanks for a delicious recipe! I sprayed the potatoes with cooking spray instead of mixing with the oil and salt before baking them, and they crisped up nicely. The topping was so good and easy!
