Fries

Cajun Seasoning

Method

Preparation of Fries

  1. 1

    Cutting Potatoes

    Wash and peel the potatoes. Cut them into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick for even cooking.

  2. 2

    Soaking Potatoes

    Soak the cut potatoes in cold water for at least 30 minutes. This helps to remove excess starch and results in crispier fries.

Frying

  1. 3

    Heating Oil

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

  2. 4

    Frying the Potatoes

    Remove the potatoes from the water and pat them dry with a clean towel. Carefully add a batch of fries to the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. Fry for about 5-7 minutes or until golden brown.

  3. 5

    Draining Oil

    Once the fries are cooked, use a slotted spoon to remove them from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

  4. 6

    Seasoning

    While the fries are still hot, sprinkle them with salt and the prepared Cajun seasoning. Toss well to ensure even coating.

Cajun Seasoning Preparation

  1. 7

    Mixing Spices

    In a small bowl, mix together the paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, thyme, and oregano until well combined.
