Method
Fries Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Potatoes
Wash and peel the Russet potatoes. Cut them into even sticks, approximately 1/4 inch thick.
- 2
Soak the Potatoes
Place the cut fries in a large bowl of cold water. Let them soak for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.
- 3
Dry the Fries
After soaking, drain the fries and lay them out on a clean kitchen towel or paper towel. Pat them dry to remove as much moisture as possible.
- 4
Heat the Oil
In a large, heavy-bottomed pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
- 5
Fry the Potatoes
Carefully add a batch of fries to the hot oil. Do not overcrowd the pot. Fry for about 4-5 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
- 6
Drain and Season
Using a slotted spoon, remove the fries from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. While they are still hot, sprinkle with sea salt, garlic powder, paprika, and black pepper to taste.

Garnish (Optional)
If desired, chop fresh parsley and sprinkle over the fries for added flavor and presentation.

Serve the fries hot and enjoy them as a side dish or snack!
