Method
Potato Preparation
- 1
- 2
Soak the Potatoes
Place the cut potato strips 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
Season the Fries
Drain the soaked potatoes and pat them dry with a paper towel. In a large bowl, toss the potato strips with salt and pepper until evenly coated.
Frying
- 4
Heat the Oil
In a large deep pot or fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
- 5
Fry the Potatoes
Carefully add a handful of the potato strips to the hot oil (do not overcrowd the pot) and fry for about 4-5 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Remove them with a slotted spoon and let them drain on paper towels.
- 6
Repeat
Repeat the frying process with the remaining potato strips in batches, ensuring the oil temperature remains consistent.
Dipping Sauce
- 7
Prepare the Dipping Sauce
In a small bowl, mix together the ketchup and mayonnaise until well combined. Serve alongside the fries for dipping.
