Mom used to make a wonderful baked "fry".
She'd slice the spuds into fries, lightly coat them with oil and lay
them out on a cookie sheet, then sprinkle with seasoning salt prior to
baking.

They were WONDerful and a big rave back when I was in college and had
friends over for hours at a time to play Dungeons and Dragons. ;-)
