Enjoy bursts of cripsy and savory flavours
I have always loved a good batch of steak fries, and as I get older, I've started to appreciate the effort it takes to make them. From the flavor to the texture, steak fries have to be my favorite fries. They offer a unique crunch on the outside, while staying soft and flavorful on the inside. This balance is hard to achieve, but once you master it, there's nothing quite like it. There's also something nostalgic about these fries, as they remind me of family gatherings, barbecues, and fun weekend meals. The rich, earthy taste of a well-baked potato paired with savory seasonings brings a comforting familiarity that never fails to satisfy.
My favourite recipie for the best batch of fries
This recipe has been made by my family for years, ever since we moved to Canada. Although it's not extravagant or complex, the effort itself makes it taste so much better. Each step in preparing these fries has been perfected over time, with every family member adding their personal touch to the seasoning or baking process. We believe that the best fries come from simple, quality ingredients, and a little bit of patience. The fragrance of these fries baking in the oven fills the entire kitchen, creating a cozy atmosphere that makes everyone anticipate the first bite. It's become a family tradition to make these fries for every occasion, whether it's a casual lunch or a holiday feast.
- Potato: We use russet potatoes because they hold their shape and texture well, even after baking.
- Salt: A pinch of salt not only brings out the natural flavors of the potato but also enhances the overall savory experience.
- Pepper: Freshly ground black pepper adds a hint of spice that complements the fries' earthy taste.
- Paprika: Paprika gives a subtle smokiness and a vibrant color to the fries, making them more visually appealing and flavorful.
- Oil: A light coating of oil ensures the fries crisp up nicely in the oven, giving them that golden-brown exterior.
- Optional Herbs and Spices: Sometimes we add a touch of garlic powder, rosemary, or thyme for extra aroma and depth of flavor, depending on our mood.
