Fries are an essential side to countless dishes, loved by kids and adults alike. Here's a twist on the classic: fries cooked in the microwave using the crisp function — a combination of microwaves and grill heat, quick and particularly well suited to vegetables.
Ingredients (serves 4)
- 5 potatoes
- 1 teaspoon butter
- 1 teaspoon paprika
Preparation (15 min, resting 25 min)
- Cut the potatoes into fry shapes.
- Arrange them on the cooking dish, without crowding.
- Add the butter, salt, pepper, and paprika (or sesame seeds, to taste).
- Cook using the crisp function.
- After 5 minutes, take the dish out, turn the potatoes over, and redistribute the butter and spices evenly.
- Cook for another 12 to 18 minutes, for fries that are soft inside and crisp outside.
It's irresistible. Savor it without restraint.
The microwave's crisp function recreates deep-fryer crunch, without the oil bath.
