Method
Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Potatoes
Wash and peel the Russet potatoes, then cut them into long, thin strips to form fries.
- 2
Soak the Fries
Soak the cut fries in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch. This will help them become crispier when fried.
- 3
Dry the Fries
After soaking, drain the fries and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel to remove moisture.
Frying
- 4
Heat the Oil
In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to ensure the oil is at the right temperature.
- 5
Fry the Potatoes
Carefully add the dried fries in batches to the hot oil. Do not overcrowd the pot to maintain the oil temperature.
- 6
Cook Until Golden
Fry the potatoes for 5-7 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove the fries from the oil.
- 7
Drain the Fries
Place the fried fries on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Season the Fries
While the fries are still hot, sprinkle them with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika to taste.
