Fries

Method

Frying the Fries

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Cut them into evenly-sized strips to ensure even cooking.

  2. 2

    Soak the Potatoes

    Soak the cut potatoes in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.

    Heat the Oil

    In a large pot or deep fryer, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).

  4. 4

    Fry the Potatoes

    Drain and dry the soaked potatoes. Fry them in batches for 4-5 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Season the Fries

    While hot, season the fries with sea salt and cracked black pepper.

Making the Horseradish Aioli

    Combine Ingredients

    In a bowl, mix mayonnaise, prepared horseradish, lemon juice, minced garlic, and a pinch of salt. Adjust seasoning to taste.
