Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 450°F (450°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.

  2. Peel the carrots and cut them into fry‑shaped pieces, about 0.5 to 1 cm thick.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: Carrots are cut into evenly sized fry shapes. Keep the pieces a similar thickness for even baking.

  3. Lightly coat the carrot pieces with olive oil spray.

  4. Add the smoked paprika, dried oregano, onion powder, red chilli flakes, and salt; toss until the carrots are evenly coated.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: Seasoning coats the carrots evenly.

  5. Place the grated parmesan cheese in a bowl and toss the coated carrot fries in it until each piece is fully covered.

  6. Arrange the fries in a single layer on the prepared baking tray, ensuring they do not overlap.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: Fries are in one layer with space between them. Avoid overlap so the edges can crisp.

  7. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until the fries are golden and crispy.

    Kitchen notes · Added by ReelsMeals: Fries are golden and crisp.

  8. Carefully flip the fries, sprinkle a little extra parmesan on top if desired, and bake for an additional 2 to 3 minutes.

  9. Remove from the oven and serve immediately with Nando's Peri Peri Sauce for dipping.
