It is also very versatile. Use any fresh herbs that you enjoy. Make it spicy, if you'd like. Use different kinds of oil to see how they adapt - it's totally up to you. But the concept is the same. Here, I used fresh rosemary and olive oil with a touch of crushed red pepper.
Baked "Fries"
3-4 medium Potatoes, cut into wedges or thinner for fries (I used red-skinned, but any kind works fine)
2 tsp Olive Oil (you could also try coconut oil/ sunflower oil/ truffle oil/ garlic-infused oil)
2 sprigs fresh Rosemary, chopped (or basil/ cilantro/ garlic or a combination of dried herbs)
Crushed Red Pepper, or chilli powder (optional), to taste
Salt, to taste
Preheat the oven to 180 deg C.
Toss the potatoes with the olive oil, rosemary, crushed red pepper and salt. Place in a baking tray, as far as possible, in a single layer.
Bake for 45 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Halfway through, use a wooden spatula and stir the potatoes around the pan and return to the oven.
Serve warm.

potatoes are an all time fav... plus if u have french fries that are not fried, u get extra points..that basically means u get a 5/5!!:D
yummy!!! I'm so going to try this!
Looks great - esp with the crushed chili. cant wait to try these. My kids would love them - I always make it with sweet potatoes but never tried regular potatoes.
I tried this last night for dinner! It was so yum! I used a garlic italian seasoning with chilli flakes and oregano! A sure keeper!
Thanks everyone!
Sweet potatoes and cauliflower are great ideas - thanks!
