Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the Russet potatoes. Cut them into long strips, approximately 1/4 inch thick. Rinse the cut fries under cold water to remove excess starch, then pat them dry with paper towels.

Cooking

  1. 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 to check the temperature.

  2. 3

    Fry the Potatoes

    Carefully add a handful of the cut potatoes to the hot oil. Fry them in batches for about 5-7 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Avoid overcrowding the pot to ensure even cooking.

  3. 4

    Drain and Season

    Once the fries are done, use a slotted spoon to remove them from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. While they are still hot, sprinkle with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder to taste.

Serving

  1. 5

    Serve Immediately

    Serve the French fries hot, either on their own or with your favorite dipping sauce.
