Ingredients
Scale
- 2 lbs russet potatoes (peeled)
- 1/4 cup duck fat
- Chinese Five Spice
- Kosher Salt
- Cooking Spray
Instructions
- Begin by peeling your potatoes fully. If there are any discolored spots, cut them out and discard them. Cut the remaining potatoes into equally sized wedges. Place potatoes into a bowl of cold water and place in fridge for 30 minutes. This will remove the extra stretch from your potatoes and help to crisp them up.
- Preheat oven to 450°.
- Remove potatoes from water and place on paper towel to dry. Roll another paper towel out and pat fully dry. Place potatoes into a dry bowl and toss in duck fat. Grease a large baking sheets and spread potatoes on pan. Make sure not to overcrowd them, split them on two baking sheets if needed.
- Bake potatoes for 20 minutes. Remove pan from oven and flip potatoes using a spatula. Return to oven immediately and cook for another 10 minutes, or until brown and crispy.
- Toss potatoes immediately in 5-spice seasoning and sprinkle with kosher salt. Serve hot.
