Really good for a low fat fry! Crunchy too, which can be hard to achieve without oil. The egg white must be the magic ingredient! I'll be making these again, thanks.

Kim, good "fries" great taste and low fat! I did make mine a little thicker so they did take about an hour and 15 minutes and then turned about every 10 minutes (pain), BUT they were well worth it! BF liked the spice! TY

Crunchier and crispier than my usual oven-baked fries. I cut them smaller so they only took about 30 minutes to bake. Instead of cajun seasoning, I used chili powder and paprika. Thanks for a good recipe!

Very good. The kid's loved it. I used about 3/4 of a cup of milk instead of egg whites and it worked great.

For "fries" that are not fried these are really good. I used 1 egg white to 1 large baking potato for 2 servings. I sprayed a little circle of cooking spray on a large cookie sheet to hold parchment paper in place and then sprayed the paper also. I've made these a few times now and found that if you wait about 15 to 20 minutes to turn the fries they don't seem to fall apart so much.

I was really skeptical, at first. But, these turned out really tasty & crispy! We devoured them before the rest of the meal came out of the oven. They were a lot of work - but well worth it!!

Perhaps I should have cut these thinner to achieve the 45 minutes cooking time? However, they were done, just not crisp like I expected. The egg seemed to help the seasoning stick to the fries, but also to help the fries stick to the baking pan! I also had a great deal of trouble turning the fries (even after I got them unstuck) - as they became more done, they crumbled each time I moved them and were quite fragile and "mealy." I simply did not get the results I was hoping for.

I never would have thought to put egg white on fries to make them crisp! But it works like a charm! I've been trying to figure out a way to make french fries without dousing them in oil, and finally I've found it. These were so tasty...but it was hard to clean the cookie sheet up afterward. Next time I will make sure all the excess egg does not bake onto the sheet. Thanks for the recipe!

My husband thought these were the best fries he had ever had!
