Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Preparation

    Peel the potatoes and cut them into thin strips (about 1/4 inch thickness). Soak the potato strips in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.

  2. 2

    Drying the Potatoes

    After soaking, drain the potatoes and pat them dry with a clean towel.

  3. 3

    Frying the Potatoes

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the potato strips in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes per batch.

  4. 4

    Draining Excess Oil

    Using a slotted spoon, remove the fries from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.

  5. 5

    Seasoning

    While the fries are still hot, sprinkle them with salt, black pepper, and Greek oregano. Toss gently to combine.

  6. 6

    Serving

    Transfer the fries to a serving plate and crumble feta cheese on top. Serve immediately.
