Steak fries are large, thick potato wedges that are easy to make but can sometimes end up floppy and soggy. However, baking them in the oven with cornstarch can ensure crispness.

When you add cornstarch to your spuds, the starch absorbs the excess moisture and creates a barrier to keep the fries fluffy on the inside and crunchy on the outside.

Start by soaking your fries in cold water, then drizzle some oil over them, and toss them in cornstarch and other seasonings. The oil will help the cornstarch stick to the fries.

Alternatively, combine cornstarch with water and microwave the mixture for a minute. Mix it until it forms a thick gel, add in seasonings, and coat your spuds with the mixture.

Lastly, spread the fries on a baking sheet with parchment paper that's been coated with oil and bake as usual. No matter which method you choose, your fries will turn out crunchy.
