Hand-Cut Fries Ingredients
Method
Preparation Directions
- 1
Prepare the Potatoes
Wash and peel the Russet potatoes. Cut them into even sticks, about 1/4 inch thick, to ensure uniform cooking.

Soak the Fries
Place the cut fries in a bowl of cold water and let them soak for at least 30 minutes. This helps remove excess starch and makes the fries crispier.
- 3
Heat the Oil
In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer for accuracy.
