Once you realize how simple and tasty it is to make fries at home, you won’t want to buy them from anyone else again. In contrast to the bread crumbs, oil, and salt, you can truly taste the potatoes. Add whatever additional spices you choose.

Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons olive oil

- 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- ½ tablespoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt, or more to taste
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Pour olive oil into a large resealable plastic bag and add potatoes. Seal the bag and shake to coat every piece with oil.

Reviews
I thought the spices overpowered the potatoes. Someone mentioned making wedges, that might taste better, or use less spice, or double the potatoes. I cooked extra time, but still not really crunchy on the outside.
I am going to use only half of the parmesan cheese next time I make these. They were very, very good.
This recipe is AWESOME! It doesn’t hurt your stomach and it tastes great! I used all of the ingredients that it said to use, and it turned out great. Although, I did change a couple of things, like I just eye-balled the measurements for the spices. When they came out of the oven, I lined a bowl with paper towels and served them in that bowl to reduce the amount of oil. Great recipe!
Very good! Everyone liked them a lot.
We followed to the “T” and where wonderful, even the picky eater loved them! Will make again!
Good taste in those fries. I did it the way the recipe said. Did not change anything
These came out perfect!! I have nothing to add or take away. Just perfect!
I did this in wedges and it was amazing.
Made it exactly as prescribed and was fabulous hubby loved it!!
Very tasty and ready in no time. I thought I had fries but I only had tater tots.
Simple and delicious!
If you read again, as I did, it refers in the comments to tasting the potato instead of bread crumbs. I think it means that this recipe does NOT contain bread crumbs so one tastes more of the potato.
Made no changes to the recipe and they were really good. Crispy and great flavor. Well ne making them again.
These were very good – and simple!
For the garlic parmesan fries it mentions bread crumbs….does it have it in the recipe? candyroaster@hotmail.com would appreciate an answer. Thank you in advance.
The recipe is AWESOME prepared as is. Tastes really good! But I have one question…. where do you get that French fry holder? It looks ceramic. It’s just the right thing! Would love to have one.
Very good! To be mindful of plastic which is banned from my kitchen, I just do the mixing with oil and spices in a bowl.
