Spring arrived
after summer < last week > but feels like spring
70 F is the high.

Along w/ the experiment on ' Mom s piecrust ' - today it was ' oven fries ' , the crispiest possible.
This recipe involves using cornstarch as a coating. But not the powder way.
 You actually, make a paste by microwaving a cornstarch solution into the paste. The paste is spread on the ' washed and dried ' potatoes. Spray a baking pan w/ cooking spray and add 2 tbsp of cooking oil.
And into the oven.
Verdict. Yes, crispy and browned nicely. But a lot of work. Ever again ?   We shall see said the Zen Master.

BTW, the cooking spray lubricates the pan so that the cooking oil spreads evenly
