Crispy and light potato sticks: the no-fry recipe that saves the day

Coat the potato starch and cheese sticks, making sure they are well coated on all sides. This will create a crispy crust when baked.

Arrange the sticks on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, without overlapping them. Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C for approximately 25 to 30 minutes, turning them halfway through for even browning.

Finishing

When the sticks are golden brown and crispy, remove them from the oven and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese to taste. Let them cool for a few minutes before serving.

Presentation and storage tips

Presentation: These sticks are perfect with a yogurt sauce or simple homemade ketchup. They make an ideal side dish for meat or fish dishes, but also a delicious snack at any time of day.

Storage: You can store leftover sticks in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 days. To restore their crispness, reheat them in the oven at 180°C (350°F) for 5 to 7 minutes before serving.
Variations: Vegan version: Replace the mozzarella and parmesan with grated vegan cheeses or nutritional yeast for a similar flavor, without animal products.

Other spices: Try adding smoked paprika or herbs like thyme or rosemary to vary the flavors.

Oven or microwave cooking: If you are in a hurry, you can also cook them in an air fryer for 15 to 20 minutes at 200°C (400°F), while maintaining the same crispness.
