Rachael Ray's Double Baked Crazy-Crisp Oven Fries

I used granulated garlic and paprika as my seasonings.

Rachael Ray's Double Baked Crazy-Crisp Oven Fries 
Original Recipe from Rachael Ray.
Makes 6 servings

Ingredients
  • 6 medium starchy potatoes, peeled
  • Olive oil
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Herbs and spices of your choice
Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 400F.
  2. Arrange wire racks over two baking sheets.
  3. Cut the potatoes into 1/4" thick fries. According to Rachael, the thinner they are the crispier they'll be.
  4. In a large bowl, drizzle the fries with a bit of olive oil and give them a toss. Season with salt and pepper, then spread the fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets (racks).
  5. Bake for 30 minutes. Remove the fries and increase the oven to 425F. Transfer the fries to a bowl and toss with spices of choice then place back on the racks and bake for another 15-20 minutes or until crispy and brown.
