Steak
Fries
Optional Garnish
Method
Preparing the Fries
- 1
Cutting the Potatoes
Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Cut them into thin strips (about 1/4 inch thick) to create fries.
- 2
Soaking the Fries
Place the cut fries in a large bowl of cold water and soak for at least 30 minutes. This helps to remove excess starch.
- 3
Drying the Fries
Drain the fries and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel to remove as much moisture as possible.
- 4
Frying the Fries
In a large heavy pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Carefully add the dried fries in batches and fry until golden brown, about 4-5 minutes.

Draining and Seasoning
Remove the fries and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Sprinkle with salt while still hot.
