Fries
Method
Preparation
- 1
Cut the Potatoes
Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Cut them into thin strips (about 1/4 inch thick) to create fries.
- 2
Soak the Fries
Place the cut fries in a large bowl of cold water and let them soak for at least 30 minutes. This helps remove excess starch, resulting in crispier fries.
- 3
Prepare the Oil
In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).
- 4
Fry the Potatoes
Remove the fries from the water, pat them dry with paper towels, and carefully add them to the hot oil in batches. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes.
- 5
Season the Fries
Using a slotted spoon, transfer the fries to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. While they are still hot, sprinkle with Cajun seasoning, salt, and black pepper to taste.
- 6
Serve
Serve the Cajun fries hot as a side dish or snack. Enjoy!
