Ingredients

??? parchment paper ???
??? canola oil ???
??? potatoes, yukon gold, if available ???
??? egg whites ???
??? paprika ???
??? salt ???

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 260°C/500°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Oil it lightly.
  2. Cut the potatoes in half lengthwise, then cut each half into 4-6 wedges. It is important to cut them into wedges of similar size so that they will all cook evenly and be done at the same time.
  3. In a deep dish, whisk the egg white with the paprika and salt. Add the potato wedges and coat them well with the egg white mixture. Transfer them to the baking sheet. Don't crowd the potatoes on the sheet or they will steam and not turn golden- brown.
  4. Bake on the bottom oven rack 15 min, then turn the potatoes and bake an additional 15 min.
  5. Serve.

These turned out nicely. I'm glad I can make tasty fries without having to deep fry!
