Soak the Fries

Dry the Fries
After soaking, drain the fries and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel to remove excess moisture.

Heat the Oil
In a heavy-bottomed pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to ensure the right temperature for frying.

Fry the Potatoes
Carefully add a batch of fries to the hot oil, frying them in small batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for 5-7 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
