Make Baked Steak Fries Vegetarian for a Healthier Version
This vegetarian steak fries recipe is a simple way to get extra veggies in your diet. I’m all about making recipes plant-based when I can. Vegetarian cooking does NOT have to be bland, boring, or flavorless… It’s quite the opposite when done right. By building meals around vegetarian pantry staples and swapping in a few plant-based ingredients you can make healthier meals for you and your family. I made a list of my 125 favorite vegan pantry ingredients that we use on a weekly basis, and check out all my vegetarian recipes here that are on The Herbeevore. These easy and healthy recipes are fantastic meatless meals for your table.
What’s In Oven Baked Steak Fries Recipe?
- Potatoes – I like using yellow potatoes best for my fries, but any variety will work. I get our potatoes for this recipe from my garden and from my Misfits Market box – they sell all organic produce at a super discounted price, and it’s purchased direct from the farmers. We get Misfit Market boxes every month and love picking out our favorite seasonal produce for delivery. You can get $10 off your first box by clicking here!
- Sunflower Oil: our go-to oil for roasting or baking! Sunflower is a high oleic oil, so it’s the best oil to use for high temperatures.
- Corn Starch: the secret to perfectly crispy roasted fries, it really makes a difference. I like Anthony’s brand organic corn starch best. I use it weekly to make crispy potatoes and tofu!
- Montreal Steak Spice: Our favorite spice blend, probably the one we use most in our home! Montreal Steak Spice is a blend of garlic, pepper, salt, oregano, crushed pepper flakes, and a little dill for an amazing flavor. With a half-Canadian household, you better believe we put this spice on everything!
- Garlic Powder: Also a major pantry staple ingredient that gets used in our house daily! I love this garlic powder and add it to a lot of recipes that I would use fresh garlic in too.
- Pink Himalayan Sea Salt: I like to use a pink Himalayan Sea Salt in my kitchen, which has more natural minerals than plain processed table salt. It’s fairly inexpensive, so I’d recommend this salt if you’re looking for an easy way to level up your spice pantry.
Other Essential Equipment
- Parchment Paper – I line my sheet pans with parchment paper, and I found the potatoes get nice and crispy on the paper, and won’t stick to the sheet pan. I go through about one of these large rolls a year, they are great for baking, roasting, and keeping foods from sticking to each other. Do NOT use wax paper, the wax will melt off on the potatoes.
- Large Sheet Pan – I invested in a large half sheet pan, that I love using for roasting and baking all my one pan dinners.
- Large “Fish Turner” Spatula – I actually like using a fish turner spatula for these fries as it has a huge surface area, and is much larger than my other spatula. That way, when I flip the potatoes half way during roasting, I can flip a good amount of them in a single scoop of the spatula.
Sheet Pan Potato Recipes For the Win!
These steak fries in the oven are the perfect sheet pan dinner! I love a good sheet pan meal, especially during these fall months when the weather starts to turn cooler. Cooking on a sheet pan is one of my favorite ways to get a meal on the table fast! All the food gets cooked on a single pan, which makes cleaning up a breeze. And the oven does all the work for you, so you can focus on other kitchen prep while the food cooks. Sheet pan meals are awesome for breakfast, lunch, or dinner – check out my link here to see other healthy sheet pan meals that are ready in no time!
The Best Sauces for Steak Fries
I’m a classic ketchup gal usually, but I love mixing it up and coming up with some delicious dipping sauces for fries. Steak fries are especially great to dip as they are thick and hold up to the sauce. Here are a few homemade recipes that bring you beyond the ketchup and into some serious dipping flavor!
How Do I Make Steak Fries in the Oven?
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper, and add 1 tablespoon of the sunflower oil on top of the parchment paper, spreading it out in an even layer on top of the paper.
- In a large bowl, toss the potato wedges with the remaining 1 tablespoon sunflower oil, corn starch, Montreal Steak Spice, and garlic powder. Toss well to combine, making sure each side of the potato wedges are coated in the corn starch mixture.
- Add the potato wedges to the sheet pan, in a single layer on the pan. Don’t overlap or double up on the rows, it will prevent the potatoes from sticking together.
- Place sheet pan in the oven, and roast the potatoes for 20 minutes. Flip them with a spatula (I actually use a fish turner spatula for this, as it has a larger surface area) and roast the potatoes on the other side for 20 more minutes.
- Once the potatoes have finished cooking, carefully remove the pan from the oven and sprinkle the tops of the potatoes with a hint of sea salt. Serve with your favorite dipping sauces and enjoy!
