How to make homemade French fries in the microwave

Fried food is harmful to the body and should not be eaten often, but sometimes children at home like to eat French fries very much. What should we do? Today I will share with you a way to make French fries in the microwave. It can not only let people taste the delicious French fries, but also will not absorb excessive grease. Moreover, it is simple to make and can be made at home at any time.

Prepare the Materials

When you make your own French fries in the microwave at home, you need a good microwave oven, 2 to 3 potatoes, an appropriate amount of salt and a little butter.

Steps to make French fries

1. Peel the prepared potatoes and cut them into strips. The thickness of the strips should be about the same as that of your little finger. However, if you want to eat crispier fries, you can cut the potato strips thinner.

2. Put the potato strips on a plate, add clean water to soak, take out after half an hour, wash off the excess starch, drain the water, add appropriate amount of table salt, and marinate for about an hour.

3. Prepare the baking tray of the microwave oven, spread a layer of butter on the bottom of the baking tray, then place the marinated potato strips on the baking tray, then put the baking tray into the microwave, close the door, and bake on high heat for five minutes.

4. Take out the baking tray from the microwave, turn the potatoes over, put them back into the microwave, and bake on high heat for about five minutes. The French fries in the plate will be ready. Take them out and taste them. They taste just as good as the fried French fries sold in fast food restaurants, and they have very little fat, which is good for human health.

5. After the French fries in the microwave are done, take them out to cool down, put them on a plate, sprinkle them with an appropriate amount of cumin powder, and prepare an appropriate amount of ketchup, and eat them directly. If you don't have a microwave at home, but you have an oven, you can also use the same method to make French fries, but when applying butter to the baking pan, add a proper amount, otherwise the baked French fries will stick to the baking pan and be difficult to take out.
