Fries

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Cut them into thick fries, about 1/2 inch wide.

  2. 2

    Soak the Fries

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

  3. 3

    Dry the Fries

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

  4. 4

    Heat the Oil

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

  5. 5

    Fry the Potatoes

    Carefully add a batch of fries to the hot oil. 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 on paper towels. While still hot, sprinkle with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika to taste.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Serve the house-cut fries hot, with your favorite dipping sauce.
