I have always preferred my fries to be thin and crispy. However, these steak fries are pretty darn good for a steak fry. So good that they will be added to my regular fry and burger rotation. Another good thing about these fries is they are baked not fried.
Now to decided what to dip these fries in. I feel that steak fries are better for dipping in condiments, than my thin and crispy, those I like to eat plain.
Homemade Steak Fries
Ingredients:
- 6 russet potatoes, rinsed
- 1/3 cup all purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, cubed and divided
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 450º F. Line two baking sheets with foil.
- Cut potatoes into wedge sized pieces.
- In a large resealable bag add the flour and pepper. Close bag and shake to mix.
- Divide butter and place on prepared baking sheets. Put baking sheets in oven to melt butter. When butter is melted remove from oven and spread butter around to coat baking sheet.
- Place a handful of potatoes into the resealable bag, seal the bag and shake to evenly coat the potatoes.
- Remove potatoes, shaking off the excess flour and place on the baking sheets in a single layer(place skin side up). Continue with remaining potatoes.
- Once the potatoes are all on the baking sheet flip them. Bake for 10-15 minutes, flipping halfway through, or until potatoes are cooked through.
