I'm giving these a five star because of the spicy flavor...I think I would call these wedges instead of fries...with that said...I cooked my wedges (with skins on) for 45 minutes and they were done but not crispy...so either I would suggest you throw them under the broiler for a few minutes or cut them thinner...into fries...but the flavor of these hit my spicy pallet...thanks for posting the recipe...made for Spring 2014 PAC...=)
