A low-FODMAP recipe for Rosemary and Garlic Baked French Fries. Crisp, tasty, and packed with flavor. Gluten-free, vegan and IBS-friendly.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 & 1/2 pounds (680 g) Russet or Yukon Gold potatoes, scrubbed
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) olive oil or avocado oil
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) garlic-infused oil
  • 1 medium bunch fresh rosemary, stems removed
  • 1 teaspoon flaked salt, plus to taste
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan (optional, for non-vegans)

Instructions

  • Chop the potatoes into thin strips, or use a food processor to do so
    • My food processor makes easy ‘shoestring-style’ fries with the French fry disc
  • Transfer strips to a large bowl of cold water and let sit for 15-30 minutes
    • I put mine in the fridge with ice cubes
  • Drain potatoes and transfer to paper towels to dry
  • If you have time, allow the potatoes to air dry for about 45 minutes
  • While potatoes are drying, grind your rosemary and salt together in a grinder or using a mortar and pestle
  • Mix your 2 oils together in a bottle or glass
  • Preheat your oven to 450F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.  If you don’t use parchment paper, then I suggest coating the sheets well with baking spray
  • Spread the chopped potatoes on the prepared baking sheets, then drizzle with 1 tablespoon (1/4) of the oil mixture and sprinkle with the half the salt and rosemary mixture. Toss everything together on the sheets to combine
  • Space the potatoes apart in a single layer
  • Bake for 15 minutes, then remove from the oven and flip all the fries using tongs or a spatula and rotate the baking sheets
  • Before replacing in oven, drizzle with 2 tablespoons (1/2) of the oil and sprinkle with the salt mixture and optional Parmesan
  • Bake for another 15 minutes, or until crisped to your preference, remove from the oven, and drizzle with the remaining oil and season to your taste
    • For extra crispy fries, place under broiler for last 2 minutes

Notes

  • Although this recipe has not been lab tested, a single serving should be low-FODMAP based on the ingredients (using available FODMAP data at time of posting)
  • This is about 3 or 4 medium potatoes
  • Infused oils have the flavor but not FODMAPs. See my Top 11 tips for reasons why!
  • For a more potent garlic flavor, use all infused oil and omit the olive oil
  • Can also use 2 teaspoons dried rosemary (but the flavor won’t be the exact same)
