Potato Preparation

Method

Potato Preparation

  1. 1

    Cutting the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the potatoes. Cut them into thin strips (about 1/4 inch thick) to resemble fries.

  2. 2

    Soaking the Potatoes

    Place the cut potatoes in a bowl of cold water and let them soak for at least 30 minutes. This helps to remove excess starch and makes the fries crispier.

  3. 3

    Drying the Potatoes

    After soaking, drain the potatoes and pat them dry using a clean kitchen towel. Make sure they are as dry as possible.

Coating

  1. 4

    Mixing the Coating

    In a large bowl, combine all-purpose flour, cornstarch, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.

  2. 5

    Coating the Potatoes

    Dredge the dried potato strips in the flour mixture until they are well coated. Shake off any excess flour.

Frying

  1. 6

    Heating the Oil

    In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  2. 7

    Frying the Potatoes

    Carefully add the coated potato strips in batches to the hot oil. Fry them for about 4-6 minutes or until they turn golden brown and crispy.

  3. 8

    Draining and Serving

    Remove the fries from the oil using a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Season with additional salt to taste before serving.
