Ingredients
- 4 large potatoes
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 3-4 tablespoons Cajun seasoning blend
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Wash and scrub the potatoes, then slice them into ¼ inch slices lengthwise. Think “French fry” size. You can leave the skins on, if desired. I left mine on.
- Cover the potatoes in a bowl with cold water and let them soak for at least 10 minutes. 60 minutes is better.
- Drain and pat the potatoes as dry as you can get them.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Toss the potatoes with olive oil, Cajun seasoning blend and a bit of salt and pepper. Be sure to get them nicely coated.
- Spread the fries out onto baking sheets and bake them for 20 minutes, tossing them a bit about half way through.
- Increase the heat to 450 degrees and bake for another 20-25 minutes, or until the baked Cajun fries and nice and crispy.
