Travel back in time with Back to the Future Flux Capacitor Fries, a fun and delicious culinary tribute to the iconic movie. Perfect for themed parties or movie nights, these uniquely shaped fries are a must-try for fans of all ages!

  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large Russet potatoes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika
  • Optional: Dipping sauces of your choice (ketchup, mustard, BBQ sauce)

Instructions

  1. Wash and peel the potatoes. Cut them into 1/2-inch thick slices, then cut into fry shapes resembling the Flux Capacitor.
  2. In a large bowl, toss potato strips with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika until well coated.
  3. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Spread the seasoned strips in a single layer on a baking sheet, lined with parchment if desired.
  4. Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through until fries are golden brown and crispy.

Notes

  • For extra crispy fries, soak the cut potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes before seasoning.
  • Ensure fries are not overcrowded on the baking sheet for even crisping.
  • Add spices like onion powder or cayenne pepper for extra flavor.
  • Serve hot and fresh out of the oven for the best taste.
