How bout if you don't FRY the potatoes in the oil, but put
them on a shallow pan, (liberally) drizzle the oil over them,
add salt, pepper, and the herbs of your choice, then do them
in the oven?

People!!! Please spend less time worrying about what's bad in
the food you eat, and more actually ENJOYING what you eat.
Have a glass of Aussie Shiraz or California semillon and yuk
it up! We're ALL going to die. Remember, if you extend your
life by ten years, that's ten years of being OLD.
