How to Store Leftovers
If you happen to have any leftovers (though they’re unlikely to last long!), you can store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, simply spread the fries on a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-10 minutes, or until heated through and crispy.
Food and Drink Pairings
Seasoned fries with a side of ketchup are incredibly versatile and can be paired with a variety of dishes. For a classic combo, serve them alongside a juicy burger or hot dog. If you’re in the mood for something lighter, pair them with a crisp salad or fresh veggies. For a fun twist, try dipping them in your favorite sauce or dressing.
