Potato Oven “Fries”

A terrific way to enjoy low-fat “fries,” this is a great accompaniment for veggie burgers and soy hot dogs.

Serves: 4

• 4 to 5 large potatoes, preferably red-skinned or Yukon gold,
  or 3 large sweet potatoes, or a combination
  (try 2 sweet potatoes with 3 white potatoes)
• 2 tablespoons light olive oil
• Salt to taste

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.

Peel the potatoes and cut them into long, 1/2-inch-thick fry-shaped strips. Combine them in a large mixing bowl with the oil and toss well to coat. Sprinkle with a little salt.

Transfer the “fries” to a nonstick baking sheet. Bake, stirring gently every 10 minutes, until the potatoes are crisp and lightly browned, about 20 to 30 minutes. Serve at once.
