Baked French Fries
Baked French fries are a healthier alternative to traditional deep-fried fries, offering the same crispy texture and satisfying flavor without the excess oil and calories. These delicious fries are made by cutting potatoes into thin strips, tossing them in a small amount of oil and seasonings, and then baking them in the oven until they are golden and crispy. The result is a guilt-free indulgence that can be enjoyed as a side dish or a tasty snack.
