Potato Preparation

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Preparing the Potatoes

    Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into thin strips, about 1/4 inch wide. Rinse the potato strips in cold water to remove excess starch, then pat them dry with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Heating the Oil

    In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). You can use a thermometer to check the temperature.

  3. 3

    Frying the Potatoes

    Carefully add the potato strips to the hot oil in small batches. Fry them for about 4-6 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Remove them with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Seasoning

    While the fries are still hot, sprinkle them with salt to taste. Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
