Waffle Fries Ingredients

Method

Waffle Fries Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Using a waffle cutter or a knife, cut the potatoes into waffle-shaped fries.

  2. 2

    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.

  3. 3

    Dry the Fries

    Drain the fries and pat them dry with paper towels. This step is crucial for achieving crispiness.

  4. 4

    Heat the Oil

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

  5. 5

    Fry the Waffle Fries

    Carefully add a handful of the dried fries to the hot oil. Fry in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 4-5 minutes per batch.

  6. 6

    Drain and Season

    Remove the fries from the oil and drain on paper towels. While they are still hot, season with salt, paprika, garlic powder, and black pepper to taste.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Serve the waffle fries hot as a side dish or snack. Enjoy!
