Method
Preparation
- 1
- 2
Soak the Potatoes
Place the cut potato strips into a bowl of cold water and let them soak for at least 30 minutes. This helps to remove excess starch and results in crispier fries.
Cooking
- 3
Heat the Oil
In a large, deep pot or a deep-fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer for accuracy.
- 4
Dry the Potatoes
After soaking, drain the potato strips and pat them dry with paper towels. This step is crucial to avoid oil splatter and achieve a crispy texture.
- 5
Fry the Potatoes
Carefully add a batch of potato strips to the hot oil, avoiding overcrowding the pot. Fry them for about 5-7 minutes or until they turn golden brown and crispy.
- 6
Drain and Season
Using a slotted spoon, remove the fries from the oil and let them drain on a plate lined with paper towels. Immediately sprinkle with sea salt, paprika, garlic powder, and black pepper to taste.

Garnish and Serve
Transfer the hot fries to a serving plate. Optionally, sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley and grated Parmesan cheese. Serve with ketchup and Sriracha sauce on the side for dipping.
