Prepare the Potatoes
Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Cut them into thin strips (about 1/4 inch thick) to form fries.

Soak the Fries
Soak the cut fries in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch, which helps in achieving a crispier fry.

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 correct temperature.
