For the dinner date, my sister gave me this recipe from one of her cookbooks for home baked fries.
Peel the potatoes, leave a few strips of skin on. Cut into 1/3" strips, sit in cold lightly salted water for 1 hour.
Drain potatoes, dry well on kitchen towels. I used paper towels. Spray baking sheet with floured cooking spray, you can find Pam baking no-stick cooking spray. Do not use parchment paper. I didn't use the floured spray and my fries stuck to the tray. You could probably just lightly oil and flour the pan if you don't have cooking spray.
Place the dried potatoes on the sprayed and floured baking sheet. Season with olive oil, salt (maybe 1/4 tsp), pepper and herbs. Bake at 400F for 40-50 min. Rotate the pan halfway through baking, stir the potatoes occasionally. Done when golden brown.

Beautiful art work, Christine.
I always like your mini-paintings Christine. I'd love to see them all in a collage of sorts.
I could almost welcome rain for that umbrella.
My children love for home baked fries either. They have growep up and busy all the time. Perhaps they can make it together. Thanks for remembering us about this

Bella pintura. Amo las papas. Te mando un beso.
A dark rainy night & a red umbrella. This sounds elements in a murder mystery. 😊 Mmm, oven fries! They look and sound delicious! I definitely want to try your recipe. I'm make oven fries but mine are thicker. Di you drizzle oil over the potatoes?
Lovely art Christine.
All the best Jan
Cathy I added oil just before baking

That's a great tip on the floured cooking spray. Thanks -- I might try these -- they look great.
Hi Christine! That is a striking rain inspired piece you created. Blessings!
I've not met a potato that I didn't like and those look great!
Your art work reminds me of the old container of salt with the little girl and the umbrella!
Christine, I've never seen such fries! Interesting about the floured spray, I will have to keep an eye out for that. I do love homemade fries! Your artwork is great, nice pop of color on the umbrella!
