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

Soak the Potatoes
Soak the cut potatoes in cold water for at least 30 minutes. This helps to remove excess starch and will make the fries crispier.

Dry the Potatoes
Drain the soaked potatoes and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.

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

Fry the Potatoes
Fry the potatoes in batches for about 5-7 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Remove them with a slotted spoon and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil.
