However, after watching Freaky Eaters, and seeing the two people addicted to fries ( literally they ate nothing but french fries) I kinda had a moment of hate for my love of fries. It quickly passed ;)
(seriously if you have not seen that show watch it. I do not make light of people that have addictions, but it really put into perspective things about food addictions and your health. Its on netflix)
So tonight, I am making fish and fries. Homemade fries from real potatoes. I do not fry them (haha made a funny) I bake them. I use garlic grapeseed oil- this is good oil. Its organic. And its just a great flavor to the fries. I cut them up skins on, and put them in a baggie with 2 tablespoons of oil and some sea salt and garlic powder, and shake. Then bake them till crispy! So good. One medium potato yields a good serving of fries and with oil its only around 160 calories for your serving. Much better then the fries from your local fast food chain. I used my version of THIS RECIPE. My tip would be start out at 10 min on one side and 10 on the other. Mine were done in 17 minutes. I checked them so i could turn them at 20 min and they were done and some had started to burn on the edges. SO start smaller and go up from there
Fish is not my husbands favorite. But he eats it. I also added some veggies to help round this dish out that I had on hand. I did put some garlic grapeseed oil and sea salt on the fish this go around. I decided against adding anything else or breading it this time.
Here's my picture of my fries. :)
