Ingredients for Arby S Oven Baked Curly Fries

  • 2 lbs russet potatoes
  • 2 tbsp paprika
  • 1 tbsp salt
  • 1 tbsp garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper (optional)
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • Powdered Egg Substitute
  • 2% Low Fat Milk

How to Make Arby S Oven Baked Curly Fries

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Peel and cut 2 lbs of russet potatoes into curly fries using a spiralizer or mandoline slicer. If using a knife, aim for roughly 1/4-inch thick fries.
  3. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes and boil for 3 minutes.
  4. Drain the potatoes in a colander and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process.
  5. Thoroughly dry the potatoes with paper towels. This is crucial for extra crispy fries!
  6. In a medium bowl, whisk together: 2 tbsp paprika, 1 tbsp salt, 1 tbsp garlic powder, 1 tbsp onion powder, 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper (optional), 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, and 1 large egg substitute (or 1 egg).
  7. Add 1/4 cup milk to the seasoning mixture and whisk until smooth.
  8. Add the dried potatoes to the seasoning mixture and toss gently until evenly coated.
  9. Arrange the fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  10. Bake for 30-35 minutes, flipping halfway through (around 15-18 minutes), until golden brown and crispy. Adjust baking time depending on your oven and desired crispiness.
  11. Remove from oven and serve immediately. Enjoy your homemade Arby's-style curly fries!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
