- 6 medium potatoes peeled
- 2 tbsp butter melted
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 tsp seasoned salt
Cut the potatoes lengthwise into ½ to ¾ inch slices (depending on how thick you desire them to be). Then cut those slices into equal portions, either ½ to ¾ inch according to your initial cut.
Place the cut potatoes into cold water and soak for at least 30 minutes. Drain the water and dry the potato slices really well with a towel.
Combine the melted butter, vegetable oil and seasoned salt and place in a large resealable plastic bag. Add in the potatoes to coat.
On a well-greased cookie sheet, or line with parchment paper, place the potato wedges in a single layer and bake, uncovered, at 450 degrees for 20-25 minutes (or until tender), turning once halfway through cooking time. Thicker steak fries may need up to 45 minutes to bake.
