Oven Baked Crispy Fries and Guacamole

Ingredients

  • 11/2 tablespoons olive oil⠀
  • salt & pepper⠀
  • a sprinkle of paprika⠀

Preparation

  1. Preheat oven to 400. Wash potatoes leaving skin on (you can peel them if you prefer).⠀

  2. Fill a bowl with cold water. Slice potatoes into 3-4 slices length wise and then into strips.⠀

  3. Let potatoes soak in cold water for at least 30 minutes (this removes starch from the potato resulting in crispier french fries). Remove from water and pat dry.⠀

  4. Toss with oil and seasoning.⠀

  5. Bake for 30 minutes. Turn fries and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes .⠀

  6. Make guacamole: 3 avocados, 1 firm tomato, finely diced, 1/2 white onion,⠀1/2 cup chopped cilantro, 2 tbsp fresh lemon or lime juice, optional salt and pepper to taste.⠀

  7. Open the avocados and scoop out the flesh. An easy way is to cut it length-wise around the pit and than using a chefs knife strike the pit and then twist the knife so you can easily remove the pit and scoop out the flesh.⠀

  8. Mash the flesh with a fork, it can still have hard parts, follow your preference.⠀

  9. Stir the other ingredients. Enjoy
