These were outstanding. I use 5 russet potatoes cut into strips, and 1 tsp of lawyers seasoning salt, 1 tsp of garlic powder, fresh ground pepper mixed with the 2 tablespoons of olive oil. I baked them for 40 minutes at 400 degrees and they came out just perfect!! I will definatley make these again and again. I think that these would be great with melted chedder and monterey jack cheese on top. YUM!!

These were awesome! (I don't deep fry anything, so never considered homeade fries before.) I was interested in it because I liked the idea of using olive oil, which is the healthiest of oils. I followed the suggestions of other reviewers about draining them well and cooking them longer. Mine cooked for about 35-40 minutes and were slightly crispy outside and tender inside. Also, I kept the leftovers in the fridge and reheated them later and they were delicious too.

These were very good! I put ice over the potatoes before I added the water and let them soak in that. After draining, I dried them on flour sack towels. I think I will also increase the bake time a bit next time. They were just starting to brown after 30 minutes at 350. Maybe next time I will be more industrious and get out the food processor to slice with and get uniform slices that will cook more evenly. I had to use russet potatoes because that's all the IGA in Decatur, Texas had and I hate (as we say in Texas) going to Walmarts. They were a lot better and healthier than Ore Ida's, and really quick to prepare. Graybert, thank you for the great recipe! It's a keeper!!

These french fries were pretty good, but I like my french fries crispier. Next time I will make sure I drain them well and cook them at 375 degrees and maybe a little longer.

Very good! I ended up eating a whole "oven-fried" potato with ketchup and nothing else! YUM! I cooked mine longer and on higher heat, too. I like mine crunchy.

What a simple recipe, with a simple taste. They didn't brown well for me so I just tossed them under the broiler for a couple o'minutes. Thank You Graybert, this will be one of our regulars.

I cooked these at 400 for about 40 minutes and they were somewhat crispy on the outside and tender inside. The thinner slices crisped better than those that were thicker. I sprinkled with some cajun spices for some extra zest.

These French Fries are Excellent!!!! I did cook them at a higher temp and for a while longer, and they turned out great! I think using the Yukon gold potatoes makes them even better. I will be making these French Fries lots more. They are a lot healthier and not so greasy!! Thanks so much Graybert....

Excellent! I made these for supper tonight and couldn't believe how good they were! I followed the recipe as stated but cooked them for about 40 minutes at 375 F. You can bet these will be a regular item on our menu! Thanks for sharing Graybert!

We were happy with the way these French fries turned out. Quite crisp on the outside and soft inside, they browned up nicely, but we did roast them about 35 minutes. I added some pepper and a little paprika, and sprinkled with course salt when I took them out of the oven. Next time I'll try other spices, nice versatile recipe, thanks for sharing.
