In a deep fryer or large pot, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).

Fry the Potatoes
Fry the soaked potatoes in batches for about 5-6 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.

Drain and Season
Remove the fries from the oil and drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with salt and, if desired, Cajun seasoning for a spicy alternative.
