Carrot Fries

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 pounds carrots (about 600 grams, peeled)
• 1 1/2 tbsp oil
• 2 1/2 tsp cornstarch ((see notes))
• 1/2-3/4 tsp sea salt
• 1/2 tsp paprika
• 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
• 1/2 tsp ground cumin
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1/4 tsp ground pepper

Instructions

1. 1

   Watch the video in the post for visual instructions.Preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit (220 degrees Celsius) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. 2

   Peel the carrots and slice them into sticks, about 1 1/2 cm thick. I used a crinkle-cut knife, but you can use a regular knife.

3. 3

   Add the carrot sticks to a large bowl along with all the remaining ingredients and toss to combine and coat the carrots well. Then, transfer them to the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.

4. 4

   Bake for approximately 30 minutes, flipping halfway. However, I recommend checking on them at 25 minutes as the size/thickness of the sticks and your particular oven may mean they take slightly less or longer (40 mins).

5. 5

   You can optionally sprinkle the baked fries with fresh herbs like parsley. Enjoy with this Yum Yum Sauce!
