Potato Preparation
Cooking Instructions
1. Prepare the Potatoes
Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Cut them into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick, to resemble fries.
2. Soak the Potatoes
Place the cut potatoes in a large bowl of cold water and let them soak for at least 30 minutes. This helps remove excess starch and results in crispier fries.
3. Dry the Potatoes
After soaking, drain the potatoes and pat them dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
4. Heat the Oil
In a large deep pot or fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to check the temperature.
5. Fry the Potatoes
Carefully add the dried potato strips in batches to the hot oil. Fry for about 5-7 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Avoid overcrowding the pot.
6. Drain and Season
Use a slotted spoon to remove the fries from the oil and drain them on paper towels. While still hot, sprinkle with salt to taste.
7. Serve
Enjoy your homemade French fries hot, with your favorite dipping sauce or condiment.
