Cooking Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel the Russet potatoes and cut them into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick.

  2. 2

    Soak the Potatoes

    Place the cut potatoes in a bowl of cold water and let them soak for at least 30 minutes. This removes excess starch and helps achieve a crispier fry.

  3. 3

    Dry the Potatoes

    After soaking, drain the potatoes and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.

  4. 4

    Heat the Oil

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

  5. 5

    Fry the Potatoes

    Carefully add a handful of potatoes to the hot oil and fry for about 4-5 minutes or until golden brown. Do not overcrowd the pot.

  6. 6

    Drain and Season

    Use a slotted spoon to remove the fries from the oil and drain them on paper towels. Immediately sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Serve the French fries hot with your favorite dipping sauces.
