Ingredients

  • Potatoes: 4 large (choose a high-starch variety like Russet for the best results)
  • Vegetable Oil: Enough for deep frying
  • Salt: To taste
  • Optional Seasonings:
    • Paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, or your favorite herbs and spices

Instructions

Preparing the Potatoes:

  1. Choosing the Right Potatoes:
    • Select large, high-starch potatoes like Russets. These potatoes have the perfect balance of starch and moisture for crispy fries.
  2. Peeling and Cutting:
    • Peel the potatoes and cut them into uniform matchstick-sized sticks. Consistency in size ensures even cooking.
  3. Soaking:
    • Soak the cut potatoes in a bowl of cold water for at least 30 minutes. This helps remove excess starch, allowing the fries to achieve a crispier texture.

Frying Process:

  1. Drying the Potatoes:
    • After soaking, drain and thoroughly dry the potato sticks using paper towels or a clean kitchen cloth. Dry potatoes result in crispier fries.
  2. Preheating the Oil:
    • Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or a heavy-bottomed pan to around 350-375°F (175-190°C).
  3. Double-Fry Technique:
    • Fry the potatoes in batches for the first time, just until they are cooked but not yet golden. Remove and let them rest while you fry the next batch.
    • For the second fry, increase the oil temperature and fry the potatoes until they turn golden brown and crispy. This double-fry technique ensures a perfect balance of tenderness and crispiness.
  4. Draining Excess Oil:
    • Remove the fries with a slotted spoon or tongs and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Seasoning and Serving:

  1. Seasoning with Salt:
    • While the fries are still hot, season them with salt to taste. Toss gently to ensure an even coating.
  2. Optional Seasonings:
    • If desired, sprinkle the fries with paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, or your favorite herbs and spices for added flavor.
  3. Serving Hot:
    • Serve the homemade French fries immediately while they are hot and at their crispiest best.

Dipping Sauces:

  1. Accompanying Dips:
    • Pair your golden fries with ketchup, mayo, aioli, or your favorite dipping sauce for a delightful flavor combination.
