Dry the Potatoes
After soaking, drain the potatoes and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel to remove excess moisture.

Heat the Oil
In a large deep skillet or frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches about 350°F (175°C).

Fry the Potatoes
Add the dried potato pieces to the hot oil in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes per batch.

Drain and Season
Remove the fries from the oil and let them drain on paper towels. While still hot, sprinkle with salt to taste.
