Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Preparation

    Peel and cut the Russet potatoes into thick fries. Rinse the cut potatoes in cold water to remove excess starch, then pat dry with a towel.

  2. 2

    Heat the Oil

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

  3. 3

    Fry the Potatoes

    Carefully add a batch of the cut potatoes to the hot oil. Fry for about 5-7 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy. Remove from the oil and drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Seasoning

    While the fries are still hot, sprinkle with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. Toss to coat evenly.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the American fries hot with your favorite dipping sauces.
