Soak the Potatoes

Heat the Oil
In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). You can check the temperature using a kitchen thermometer.

Coat the Potatoes
Remove the curly potato slices from the water and pat them dry with paper towels. Dip each slice into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated.

Carefully place the battered potato slices into the hot oil in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. Fry for about 3-4 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
