Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the Russet potatoes. Cut them into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick. Soak the cut fries in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.

  2. 2

    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). Use a thermometer for accurate measurement.

  3. 3

    Dry the Fries

    Drain the soaked fries and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels to remove excess moisture.

  4. 4

    Fry the Potatoes

    Carefully add a batch of fries to the hot oil. Fry for about 5-7 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove them from the oil and transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

  5. 5

    Season the Fries

    Immediately sprinkle the hot fries with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika to taste. Toss gently to coat evenly.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the fries warm as a side dish with your favorite dipping sauces.
