Transfer the potatoes to a baking tray or baking pan, splitting into two if necessary.

Add a generous amount of olive oil to the potatoes and shake gently to coat them.

Preheat the oven to 450°F (232°C).

Place the baking tray in the oven and bake for about 30 minutes.

After 30 minutes, give the potatoes a gentle mix and return them to the oven.

Bake for an additional hour until they are very crunchy.

Remove from the oven and mix the fries to unstick them from the pan.

Transfer the fries to a bowl and season with kosher salt and garlic powder, tossing to combine.
