Fries Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prep the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Cut them into thin shoestring slices, about 1/8 inch thick.

  2. 2

    Soak the Potatoes

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

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  4. 4

    Drain and Dry

    Drain the soaked potatoes and pat them dry with a clean towel to remove excess moisture.

  5. 5

    Fry the Potatoes

    Carefully add the dried potatoes to the hot oil in batches, frying until golden brown and crispy, about 4-5 minutes.

  6. 6

    Season the Fries

    Remove the fries from the oil and drain on paper towels. While still hot, sprinkle with salt, paprika, garlic powder, black pepper, oregano, and thyme.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Serve immediately while hot and crispy, with your favorite dipping sauce.
