Baked French Fries

We are in day 4 of the 4th week of mega Blogging marathon edition and today I am sharing the all time favorite French fries in a baked version.
Fried version of French fries is so tasty and addictive but the baked version also close to the fried version and crispy.
If its served warm it tastes like the fried one,but after cooling it is bit chewy.So serve this baked version when it is slightly warm.Here I used the russet potatoes and lets move on to the recipe................
