Ingredients
Scale
Fries
- 4 large russet potatoes, washed, peeled, and cut into even strips
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning
- 1/4 cup chopped green onions
- 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese (optional)
Spicy Sauce
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoons hot sauce (adjust to taste)
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
Instructions
- Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) to ensure it’s hot and ready for roasting the fries evenly.
- Prepare potatoes: Wash, peel, and cut russet potatoes into even strips to ensure uniform cooking and crispy results.
- Season fries: Toss the potato strips with olive oil until they are evenly coated, then sprinkle generously with Cajun seasoning and mix well to distribute the flavors thoroughly.
- Roast fries: Spread the seasoned fries out in a single layer on a baking sheet to avoid overcrowding, then roast in the oven for 30-35 minutes, flipping halfway through until golden brown and crispy.
- Make spicy sauce: While the fries bake, combine sour cream, hot sauce, and lemon juice in a bowl and mix well to create a creamy, tangy, and spicy dipping sauce.
- Finish and serve: Once the fries are done roasting, remove them from the oven and immediately top with chopped green onions and crumbled feta cheese if using, then serve alongside the spicy sauce for dipping.
Notes
- For crispier fries, soak potato strips in cold water for 30 minutes before seasoning and roasting to remove excess starch.
- Adjust the amount of Cajun seasoning and hot sauce to your preferred spice level.
- Feta cheese is optional but adds a creamy, salty contrast to the spicy fries.
- Use a convection oven setting if available for even crispier results.
- Leftover fries can be reheated in the oven to retain crispiness rather than microwaving.
