How did I come up with this recipe?

One day, I was eating dinner with my husband and we were having fries. I asked him, "How can I make fries more Asian tasting" lol. And it came to my mind - seaweed! We Asian people love seaweed. It's such a delicious snack on its own especially when it's the seasoned kind.

So I decided to wrap a fry in some seasoned seaweed, dipped it in some mayo and bam, this recipe was born! And then I started googling to see if this recipe existed online. But I discovered McDonald's already beat me to the race with their McDonald's nori fries....thanks McD's.

Unlike their nori fries, I decided to elevate this dish by seasoning the fries with some garlic powder, sesame oil and sesame seeds as well. Sesame and seaweed are a MATCHMADE in food heaven.

For this recipe

You will need the following ingredients for my sesame nori fries recipe:

8 small medium potatoes, peeled and sliced into thick cut fries
2 tbsp avocado oil
¾ tsp salt
¾ garlic powder

Toppings:
⅓ cup Japanese mayo
4 pieces of seasoned seaweed strips, cut into thin matchsticks
1 tsp sesame seeds
1 tsp sesame oil

How to make Sesame Nori Fries

1. Preheat your oven to 450 degrees F.
2. Slice your fries into thick cut fries. Spread them on a lined baking sheet. Add avocado oil, garlic powder and salt. Massage the seasoning into your fries.
3. Bake for 35 minutes total, flipping the fries over half way.
4. Meanwhile, cut your seasoned seaweed into matchsticks.
5. Once fries have cooked, transfer to a serving bowl. Season with sesame oil, sesame seeds, seaweed matchsticks and some mayo. Enjoy while hot!

Where can I find these ingredients?

You can purchase sesame oil and sesame seeds at any asian grocer.

As for the Japanese mayo, this is a special creamy mayo by the brand Kewpie and it looks like this. It tastes similar to regular mayo but it's much creamier.

For the seasoned seaweed strips, you can purchase this at any Asian, Korean or Japanese grocery store. It looks like this or you can purchase it online
