Prepare the Potatoes
Begin by peeling and cutting the potatoes into thin strips, resembling fries. Place them in a bowl of water and soak for about 10 minutes. This helps to remove excess starch, ensuring they crisp up better during baking. -
Preheat the Oven
While the potatoes are soaking, preheat your oven to 200°C (about 400°F). -
Season the Potatoes
After soaking the potatoes, drain and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel. In a large mixing bowl, toss the potato strips with olive oil, salt, mixed herbs, and red chili flakes. Make sure the potatoes are evenly coated with the seasoning mix. -
Bake the Fries
Spread the seasoned potato strips in a single layer on a baking tray. Place the tray in the preheated oven and bake for about 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy. Halfway through the baking process (after about 10 minutes), give the potatoes a stir to ensure they cook evenly on all sides. You can drizzle a little extra olive oil at this stage if needed for more crispness. -
Prepare the Toppings
While the fries are baking, prepare your toppings. Slice the black olives and pickled jalapeños. -
Assemble the Loaded Fries
Once the fries are crispy and done, remove them from the oven and transfer them to a serving platter. Drizzle with eggless mayonnaise and a generous splash of Veeba Sriracha sauce. Top the fries with sliced black olives and pickled jalapeños for that perfect balance of creamy, spicy, and tangy flavors. -
Serve and Enjoy
Serve these Loaded Baked Potato French Fries immediately while they’re still hot and crispy. They make an excellent appetizer for parties, family gatherings, or a cozy movie night. Pair them with a homemade black bean burger or a refreshing ice tea sangria for a complete meal experience.
Tips for the Perfect Loaded Fries:
- For extra crispiness, make sure to dry the potato strips thoroughly before seasoning and baking.
- You can customize the toppings to your preference. Try adding shredded cheese, green onions, or bacon bits for an extra indulgent treat.
- If you prefer a milder heat, reduce the amount of sriracha sauce or omit the chili flakes altogether.
