1
Wash and Peel Potatoes
Rinse the Russet potatoes under cold water to remove any dirt. Using a vegetable peeler, carefully peel the skin off the potatoes.
2
Cut Potatoes into Fries
Using a crinkle cutter, cut the peeled potatoes into crinkle-cut fry shapes, approximately 1/4 inch thick.

3
Heat the Oil
In a large pot or deep fryer, pour in the vegetable oil and heat it to 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to check the temperature.
4
Fry the Potatoes
Carefully add a batch of crinkle-cut fries to the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pot. Fry for about 5-7 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
5
Drain and Season
Using a slotted spoon, remove the fries from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. While still hot, sprinkle with salt, garlic powder, and paprika to taste.

6
Serve Hot
Serve the crinkle-cut fries hot as a side dish or snack. Enjoy with your favorite dipping sauce.
