Baked Garlic-Beer Fries

September 28, 2011 by Jaida Leave a Comment

You know those days when you are really hungry for something specific, but you can’t seem to pinpoint what it is?? Well, I was having one of those days while searching for something to make T for dinner Monday night, I browsed through my blog list for inspiration. That is when I came across this recipe on Caitlin’s Cooking and thought it would be perfect to go with the sliders T requested. Because they are baked, they take almost an hour to complete so I had to start on them as soon as I got home from work. Slice up the potatoes, poor the beer over them, wait 15 minutes, toss with oil, garlic & seasonings, throw ’em in the oven. Easy peasy. I was a little worried since I don’t personally like beer, but they tasted great!! And coupled with sliders and the Dallas Cowboys football game, who could ask for anything better??


Baked Garlic-Beer Fries
As seen on Caitlin’s Cooking, Originally from craftbeer.com

Ingredients
  • 12 oz good beer
  • 3 russet potatoes, about 3/4 lbs
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 Tbsp olive oil, canola oil, or bacon fat
  • 1-1 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4-1/2 tsp black pepper
Preparation
  1. Preheat oven to 425°F
  2. Scrub and cut potatoes with skin on into 1/2″ sticks.  In a large bowl, soak the cut fries in the beer.  Let soak for 15 minutes, tossing a few times so that the potatoes soak evenly. 
  3. Drain beer and toss the potatoes with the oil, garlic, salt and pepper, making sure that each one is well coated.
  4. Line a large baking sheet with foil, and spread the fries in a single layer on the pan, using two pans if necessary.  Bake for 40 minutes to 1 hour, depending on how crispy you like them, tossing 3-4 times.
  5. Add more salt and pepper to your liking and serve hot.

Welcome!

As a busy wife and mom who also works a full time job, I try to have dinner done in 30 minutes or less so I can spend more of my evenings with my hubby and baby girl, so what you will find here are recipes that are mostly-healthy, quick and easy. Of course I have desserts, less healthy and more time-intensive meals as well (everything in moderation!), but all-in-all, you can count on weeknight friendly options, all made with love and dished up with a side of life, love, and family!
