I’m a big fan of fries and always have been! I don’t deep fry foods much, so when I make fries I usually roast them instead of deep frying them. So these yummy Farmhouse Fries are actually drizzled with olive oil and baked in the oven, not fried! Hopefully they are a little healthier than deep fried fries, and I think they are just as tasty!
They’re really easy to make—just cut your potatoes into wedges, spread them on a large parchment-lined sheet pan, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt, pepper, and a few other seasonings! This makes a great potato side dish for lunch or dinner, not only with burgers, but with just about anything! I really like these dipped in ketchup, too! 🙂
Farmhouse Fries
FARMHOUSE FRIES by NancyC
Makes 4 to 5 servings
2 1/2 pounds yellow potatoes (I used Yukon Gold)
2 Tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon paprika
Preheat oven to 375˚F. Line a 13 x 18″ rimmed sheet pan with parchment paper; set aside.
Wash potatoes and either peel or leave the skins on (I left the skins on, since I was using organic potatoes). Cut potatoes in half lengthwise, then cut into wedges.
Spread potato wedges on your prepared sheet pan and drizzle with the olive oil. Then sprinkle evenly with the sea salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
Roast potato wedges at 375˚F for 25 minutes, then remove from oven, turn fries over with a large spoon for even roasting, and return to oven and bake for another 25 minutes. Let fries cool for a few minutes; add additional salt and pepper to taste if desired, then serve.

I love making my potatoes this way too! Leaving the skin on as well. I don’t know why, I never thought of using olive oil which is a better choice. I use vegetable oil but from now on I will use olive oil! Everyone loves them! Thank you for the recipe!

I’m with you when it comes to fries. If I’m preparing them at home, I bake them. If I have them in a restaurant, I order them crispy. 😊

Decades ago, in San Diego, we went to the top of an outdoor mall. They had the best cup of fries.

There was an old amusement park I used to go to way back when where they served fries in cups too—they were so good!
