Oven baked paprika fries

I´d like to share that wonderful recipe with you - just in case you can buy a whole bag of paprika (10 units lot) for little money.

Vegetable fries are really delicious snacks, healthy, low fat and cheap and easy to make!

Preheat the oven on to 220 degree Celsius.
Cut 3 paprika in slices, that amount fits perfectly on a baking sheet.
Mix these paprika slices with oil and salt. I recommend one or two tablespoons of olive oil and at least one tablespoon of salt. Mix it!
Then put 3-4 Tablespoons of edible starch on it and mix it very well.
Pour 1 tablespoon each of rice flour and corn flour  to it and mix it.

Place the paprika slices even on the baking sheet, so they aren't layering.

Bake until it looks like on the picture. Open the oven after ~10 minutes and let the steam out. Let the steam out several times, if necessary.

I think they need at around 20 minutes.

Enjoy!

Hint: Serve as a healthy snack when you have guests or for a party. Also good instead of fries or popcorn for when you are on the couch and watch tv.^^

Disadvantage: They may be high in acrylamid.

Resistant starch from Potato tornados - terrible idea

Hello!

Because i cant help myself but to really doubt that cooling for 5 hour will reduce the calories of ramen by half, i decided to make resistant starch from a snack that i really love - potato tornadoes!

Potato tornadoes are a wonderful fastfood, even suitable for weightloss if oil is used sparse.
i bought an oil sprayer just to bake low fat potato tornadoes! i can really recommend oil sprayer for everyone who wants to bake with only little oil.

The other great thing of potato tornadoes is, that they are healthy. The potatoes doesn't need to be cooked, to dispense their vitamins in to the cooking water that will only be poured away. The best thing to cook potatoes is to sizzle them with very little oil or to bake them with very little oil or even no oil.
Please don't bake potatoes in tin foil, I'm not sure that the aluminum isn't going into the potatoes. Please avoid ALL aluminum, since its considered to be a potential cause of neurodegenerative diseases.

Here some arousing pictures of delicious potato tornadoes first of all:

Oh dear, they are so yummy!

The top is crispy like potato chips and the other areas are soft.
A perfect composition!!!

I spray them thinly with the oil sprayer and sprinkle some potato fries spices on them. Paprika, curry, onion, pepper, cumin, chili, garlic and so on...

Then i bake them at 392 degree Fahrenheit until toe top side get brown edges.
better don't bake them too crispy, because it WILL be higher in acrylamide then. (Which is so far, the only disadvantage of this delicious snack)

 Another picture with my hand as a measuring scale.

To home make these precious potato snacks, you only need such a crank:

If your skilled with your hands, you will be able to make very good potato tornadoes, just with that. That thingy only costs about 1$.^^ (I recommend to buy a few, because mine broke after 4 month of frequent use^^)

I'm sure, that's the cheapest link:
 Buy spiral cutter for only 0,75$

And here the oil sprayer, too:
Oil sprayer 6,65$

Cheapest link i found.
Btw.: You cant use a normal spraybottle to spray oil, believe my, i already tried it.

Metal skewers 10 pc 3$

(the same that i have)

These are the potato tornadoes that i baked yesterday evening.

I intended to put them in the fridge overnight.

I was skeptical.

They look really nice in the box, though.





















(The picture is taken immediately after their were baked)


Now i came home, looking forward to eat yummiest potato tornadoes with lots of resistant starch and even their calories decimated. ^^

I opened the box, that has been in the fridge the whole time:

Here's how they changed:


























I ate a few and unluckily I'm not very pleased. No crisp anymore. And the taste is also not good. Its hard to describe, but somehow the tastes remembers to raw potatoes. Also the consistency became somehow floury in a way that wasn't good.

Conclusion:
I'm not very happy to announce that potato tornadoes doenst commend themselves as a good resistant starch fastfood.
