My son is getting more and more adventurous with his culinary skills recently - adding or mixing up ingredients and coming up with his own recipes. This is one of them. He has made this bake fries recipe several times and he's good at it by now.
It's the best baked fries we have tried so far - it's crunchy (of course, it's best to eat them right away), wonderful basil flavor and a bit tangy spiciness. Best of all, it's healthier than regular french fries and it's quiet simple and easy to make. We are hooked on baked fries these days. Try it! Below is his recipe through his own words.

Instructions:
In a large bowl, combine oil and pepper. Cut potatoes lengthwise into 1 - 1 1/2 inches strips. Add to oil mixture and toss until coated. Then add ground cayenne and basil to potatoes and mix again. Place on a 15 in. x 10 in. x 1 in. baking pan that has foil and nonstick cooking spray. Bake, uncovered, at 425 degrees for 28-30 minutes or until golden brown and crisp.
