1
Cut the Potatoes
Wash and peel the Russet potatoes. Cut them into thick fries, about 1/4 inch wide.
2
Soak the Fries
Soak the cut fries in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch. This helps them become crispier when cooked.
3
Dry the Fries
Drain the fries and pat them dry with a clean towel to remove moisture.
4
Heat the Oil
In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).
5
Fry the Potatoes
Carefully add the fries in batches to the hot oil. Fry for about 5-7 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Remove them with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
6
Season the Fries
While the fries are still hot, sprinkle with salt to taste.

7
Melt the Butter
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter gently.
8
Add Garlic
Once the butter is melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for 2-3 minutes until fragrant but not browned.
9
Add Parsley
Remove from heat and stir in the chopped fresh parsley.

10
Combine Fries and Garlic Butter
Place the crispy fries in a large serving bowl and drizzle the garlic butter over them. Toss gently to coat.
11
Add Old Bay Seasoning
Sprinkle the Old Bay seasoning evenly over the fries and toss again to mix well.
12
Serve
Serve immediately while hot, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
