Preparing the Fries

Cut the Potatoes
Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into evenly-sized fries, about 1/4 inch thick.

Soak the Fries
Place the cut fries in a bowl of cold water and let them soak for at least 30 minutes. This helps to remove excess starch and results in crispier fries.

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

Fry the Potatoes
Drain the soaked fries and pat them dry with paper towels. Fry them in batches for about 5-6 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Remove them with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
