french fries
I just love potatoes and this is my favorite way to have what i now call french fries
When I bake potatoes I always bake extra and then can have then on the table in about 15 minutes.
Slice cold baked potatoes into 1/2 inch rounds
spray both sides with pam and season with your favorite seasoning.
Place in a hot non stick pan over medium heat and cook for 5 minutes on each side.
You might have to experiment with the time for how crispy you like them
I count them as one baked potato
They make me happy:happy:
It is also good with sweet potatoes
