Just Like French Fries


Ingredients
potatoes, scrubbed clean, unpeeled
1/2 - 1 tsp tahini per potato
sea salt to taste
Description Everyone loves french fries! For picky eaters this is the best dish to start with. The only secret to these hits is a very hot oven, if your oven is not hot enough the potatoes will bake rather then roast and not be crunchy and golden just like French fries are.
Instructions 1. Cut potatoes into slices 1 cm thick and then cut them into fries.
2. Place oven tray in oven and heat oven on highest heat.
3. In bowl drizzle potato slices with tahina (approximately ½-1 teaspoon per potato but the amount is reduced as the quantity increases), sprinkle with salt and any other seasonings of choice. Mix well.
4. Take out hot oven tray, drizzle a few drops of oil on the tray and spread them with a tissue paper, quickly spread potatoes on tray and return tray to oven to bake. Bake for 35-45 minutes, flipping potatoes as needed so that all are evenly roasted.
5. Serve immediately with home-made ketchup and/or mayonnaise.

Note Variation: Try this with sweet potatoes or taro, it's absolutely delicious.
