Directions
Prepare the Potatoes

Heat the Oil
In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Dry the Potatoes
Drain the soaked potatoes and pat them dry with a clean towel to remove excess moisture.
Drain and Season
Use a slotted spoon to remove the fries from the oil and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil. While still hot, sprinkle with salt, pepper, and paprika if desired.
Serve
Serve the Papas Fritas immediately while hot. Enjoy with your favorite dipping sauce!
