Method

Fries Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel the potatoes and cut them into even sticks, about 1/4 inch thick.

  2. 2

    Soak the Potatoes

    Place the cut potatoes in a bowl of cold water and let them soak for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

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

  4. 4

    Dry the Potatoes

    Drain the soaked potatoes and pat them dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.

  5. 5

    Fry the Potatoes

    Carefully add a batch of potatoes to the hot oil, being careful not to overcrowd the pot. Fry for about 5-7 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.

  6. 6

    Season the Fries

    Remove the fries from the oil and drain them on paper towels. While they are still hot, sprinkle with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika to taste.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Serve the fries hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
