Ok tell me who doesnt like french fries? :) and when vacations are gng on kids tend to demand this and that and these days they expects /demands french fries as their evening snacks. But I am never comfortable with deep fried stuffs even for the kids , so I tried baking it a few days back .. but was not great and tried again , and yes it came out great and was quick too. If you have a steamer and an oven .. voila you get almost perfect french not fries! Here goes the recipe
Ingredients
Potatoes- as much as you like
Salt

Make your steamer ready by heating water in the bottom vessel.
Meanwhile switch on the oven for preheating to at 200 degrees Celsius
Spread the chopped potatoes in the steamer and steam for 5- 7 minutes. Make sure it doesn't get cooked completely.
Take the baking tray and throw in all the semi cooked/steamed thinly elongated potatoes into the baking tray. Add two tabespoons of olive oil and sprinkle salt too. Mix well with your hand so that all the potato peices gets coated with oil and spread it evenly.
Put the tray in the oven for baking and after some 5-10 minutes change the mode of the oven to grill , so that the top and bottom gets crisp!
