One of my safe staples is French fries -- I peel and cut up potatoes, spray lightly with non-stick spray, and bake in the toaster oven. But this means every time I want them I have to peel and cut potatoes. And I am lazy, and it would really be nice to just pull some from the freezer. I've looked at the premade French fries, but the fat content on them is pretty high considering I have to eat them on an empty, ultra-touchy stomach. (The majority of Ore-Ida's potato products have 50% calories from fat! Yikes.)

So, has anyone tried cutting potatoes up and freezing? I know from personal experiences that cooked potatoes do NOT freeze well, but would cut-up raw potatoes do OK, you think? Since the fat content on store-bought fries are so high, do you suppose they need to be smothered in oil to freeze well?
