Oven Roasted Herbed Cheese Fries

Grace Parisi seems to be a consistent contributor to Food and Wine. This is a good one. It's nice that you roast the fries for a few more minutes after the herbs and garlic are added because it cooks out the sharpness of the raw garlic. :)

Oven Roasted Fries
2 large baking potatoes, cut into 4-by-1/2-inch sticks
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 large garlic clove, minced
1 teaspoon minced sage
1 teaspoon minced rosemary
1/4 cup freshly grated Pecorino Romano cheese
Salt and freshly ground pepper
Preheat the oven to 425°. In a large bowl, toss the potato sticks with the olive oil until evenly coated. Spread the potato sticks on a rimmed baking sheet in a single layer and bake in the upper third of the oven, turning once or twice with a spatula, until they are golden and crispy, about 30 minutes.
Sprinkle the minced garlic and herbs over the fries and toss well. Roast for about 5 minutes longer, until the herbs are fragrant and the garlic is lightly browned. Transfer the fries to a large bowl and toss with the grated Pecorino Romano. Season with salt and pepper and serve.
