Fries

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the Russet potatoes. Cut them into thin strips or wedges, depending on your preference.

  2. 2

    Soak the Potatoes

    Soak the cut potatoes in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch. This helps them become crispy when fried.

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

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

  4. 4

    Fry the Potatoes

    Drain and pat the potatoes dry. Fry them in batches for about 5-7 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Season the Fries

    While the fries are still hot, toss them in a bowl with salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and chipotle powder to taste.

  6. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Garnish with chopped cilantro and serve with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the fries.
