Potato Preparation

Method

Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Potatoes

Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Cut them into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick.

2

Soak the Potatoes

Place the cut potatoes in a bowl of cold water and soak for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.

3

Dry the Potatoes

Drain the soaked potatoes and thoroughly dry them using paper towels or a clean kitchen towel.

4

Heat the Oil

In a large heavy-bottomed pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).

5

Fry the Potatoes

Carefully add the dried potato strips to the hot oil in batches. Fry until they are golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes.

6

Drain and Season

Remove the fries from the oil and drain on paper towels. While still hot, sprinkle with salt and black pepper to taste.

7

Serve

Serve the crispy French fries hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
