Method
Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Potatoes
Wash and peel the Russet potatoes. Cut them into thin strips, approximately 1/4 inch wide to ensure even cooking.
- 2
Soak the Potatoes
Place the cut fries into a bowl of cold water and let them soak for at least 30 minutes. This removes excess starch and helps achieve a crispy texture.
Cooking

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). Use a thermometer for accuracy.

Dry the Potatoes
After soaking, drain the fries and pat them dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture before frying.

Fry the Potatoes
Carefully add a batch of the dried fries to the hot oil. Fry in batches to avoid overcrowding. Cook for 4-5 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy.
