Serve these with any of our dipping sauces or just plain ketchup, but be sure to try them the French way at least once—with Lemon-Garlic Mayo.
Ingredients:
1 (26-oz.) package frozen extra-crispy french fried potatoes
3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 425°. Arrange potatoes in a single layer on 2 lightly greased 15- x 10-inch jelly-roll pans. Bake 15 minutes, placing 1 pan on middle oven rack and other on lower oven rack. Switch pans, and bake 12 to 15 more minutes or until lightly browned. Sprinkle with pepper and salt, tossing lightly. Serve immediately.
2. Note: We tested with Ore-Ida Extra Crispy Fast Food Fries.
