Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the Russet potatoes. Cut them into evenly sized sticks, about 1/4 inch thick.

  2. 2

    Soak the Potatoes

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

  3. 3

    Dry the Potatoes

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

  4. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C) over medium-high heat.

  5. 5

    Fry the Potatoes

    Carefully add a handful of the dried potato sticks to the hot oil. Fry for about 4-5 minutes or until golden brown. Remove them with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

  6. 6

    Season and Serve

    While still hot, sprinkle the fries with salt and black pepper to taste. Serve immediately.
