Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Preparing the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the Russet potatoes. Cut them into fries, about 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick.

  2. 2

    Soaking the Fries

    Place the cut fries in a bowl of cold water and let them soak for at least 30 minutes. This helps to remove excess starch and will result in crispier fries.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Heating 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 for frying.

  2. 4

    Frying the Fries

    Remove the fries from the water and pat them dry with a clean towel. Carefully add a batch of fries to the hot oil and fry for about 4-6 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Do not overcrowd the pot.

  3. 5

    Draining and Seasoning

    Once cooked, remove the fries with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Immediately sprinkle with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika while they are still hot.

Serving

  1. 6

    Garnishing

    For an extra touch, sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese and chopped fresh parsley over the fries before serving.

  2. 7

    Enjoying

    Serve the fries hot with ketchup, mayonnaise, or hot sauce on the side for dipping.
