Method
Directions
- 1
Prepare the Potatoes
Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Cut them into thin strips or desired fry shape.
- 2
Soak the Potatoes
Soak the cut potatoes in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.
- 3
Heat the Oil
In a deep fryer or a large heavy pot, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).
- 4
Fry the Potatoes
Drain and pat the soaked potatoes dry. Carefully add a handful of fries to the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for about 5-7 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
- 5
Drain and Season
Remove the fries from the oil and drain on paper towels. While they are still hot, season with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder to taste.
