Method

Preparation

1

Prepare the Potatoes

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

2

Soak the Potatoes

Place the cut potatoes in a bowl of cold water and let them soak for at least 30 minutes. This helps remove excess starch.

Cooking

3

Heat the Oil

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

4

Dry the Potatoes

After soaking, drain the potatoes and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel to remove excess moisture.

5

Fry the Potatoes

Carefully add a batch of the dried potato strips to the hot oil. Fry them for about 5-7 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy.

6

Drain the Fries

Use a slotted spoon to remove the fries from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

7

Season the Fries

While the fries are still hot, sprinkle them with salt and any optional seasonings (garlic powder, paprika, black pepper) to taste.
