Crinkle Cut Fries Recipe

Cooking Directions

1. 1

   Preparing the Potatoes

   Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Using a crinkle cutter, slice the potatoes into crinkle cut fries. Soak the cut fries in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.

2. 2

   Drying the Fries

   Drain the fries and pat them dry thoroughly with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.

3. 3

   Heating the Oil

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

4. 4

   Frying the Fries

   Carefully add the dried crinkle cut fries into the hot oil, being careful not to overcrowd the pot. Fry in batches for about 5-7 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.

5. 5

   Draining and Seasoning

   Remove the fries from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. While still hot, sprinkle with salt, garlic powder, paprika, and black pepper to taste.

6. 6

   Serving

   Serve the crinkle cut fries hot as a side dish or snack with your favorite dipping sauces.
