This looks like a clever homemade alternative to classic French fries—and yes, using an egg is a neat trick to make them extra crispy!
🥔 Crispy Potato Sticks (Better Than Fries!)
Ingredients:
3–4 potatoes (cut into sticks)
1 egg
Salt (to taste)
Black pepper or paprika (optional)
1–2 tbsp flour or cornstarch (optional, for extra crunch)
Oil (for frying or baking)
Instructions:
Prep the potatoes
Peel and cut into fry-shaped sticks. Rinse in cold water, then dry very well.
Add the egg
Crack 1 egg over the potatoes and mix well so all pieces are coated.
Season
Add salt, pepper, and spices. You can also add a little flour or cornstarch for extra crispiness.
Cook
Fry method: Heat oil and fry until golden and crispy.
Oven method: Bake at 200°C (400°F) for 30–40 minutes, turning halfway.
Serve hot
Enjoy crispy, golden potatoes—perfect with your favorite sauce!
👉 The egg helps create a light coating that turns crispy when cooked—simple but very effective.
If you want, I can show you an air fryer version (even healthier and super crispy).
