Instructions: These look almost as good as they taste. The Cajun spice lends a bright red hue to the crunchy surface, while the soft inside is snowy white. At half a gram of fat per serving (versus 16 grams for the same amount of the fried variety), you can munch away guiltlessly. Serve alongside a small bowl of reduced-calorie catsup.

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

Slice each potato lengthwise into 1/4-inch ovals, then slice each oval lengthwise into matchsticks.

Coat a baking sheet with 3 sprays of the vegetable oil.

Combine the egg whites and Cajun spice in a bowl. Add the matchstick potatoes and mix to coat. Pour the coated potatoes onto the prepared baking sheet and spread them out into a single layer, leaving a little space between.

Place the baking sheet on the bottom shelf of the oven. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, until the fries are crispy, turning them every 6 to 8 minutes with a spatula so that they brown evenly. Serve immediately.
