Crispy potatoes on a stick! Spice them up, or load them up, for a fun hands on snack.

INGREDIENTS

  • 4 wooden or metal skewers
  • 4 large Russet potatoes
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt, or to taste
  • Oil, for frying
  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese, optional
  • Fresh parsley, chopped, optional
  • Dipping sauce, optional: sour cream, ketchup, or garlic aioli

DIRECTIONS

  1. Wash and dry the potatoes. Insert the skewer through the potato and push the potato to the center of the skewer.
  2. Hold the skewer in one hand and using a sharp knife, carefully cut the potato into a ¼-inch thick spiral. Start at the top of the potato and cut at an angle, continuing to twist the potato as you slice to create a continuous spiral to the bottom of the potato. Working from the middle gently pull the potato slices apart along the skewer to create space between the spirals without breaking them.
  3. In a bowl, mix paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, black pepper, and salt. Sprinkle the mixture over the spiraled potatoes before frying.
  4. Deep-fry at 350°F for 4-5 minutes on each side or spray with oil and air-fry at 400°F for 18 minutes, flipping once in between.
  5. Sprinkle with finely grated Parmesan and parsley, load them up with bacon, cheese, sour cream and guacamole, or serve with dipping sauces, if desired.
