Fries

Method

Preparing the Fries

  1. 1

    Cutting the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the Russet potatoes. Cut them into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick.

  2. 2

    Soaking the Potatoes

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

  3. 3

    Drying the Fries

    After soaking, drain the fries and pat them dry with paper towels to ensure they fry properly.

Frying the Fries

  1. 4

    Heating the Oil

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

  2. 5

    Frying the Fries

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

  3. 6

    Draining the Fries

    Remove the fries with a slotted spoon and drain them on paper towels. While they are still hot, sprinkle salt and black pepper over them.

Assembling the Cook Out Fries

  1. 7

    Layering the Toppings

    On a large serving platter, layer the hot fries. Top them with shredded cheddar cheese, bacon bits, and chopped green onions.

  2. 8

    Adding Sour Cream

    Drizzle or dollop sour cream over the top of the fries and serve immediately.
