Step-by-Step Instructions
1
Peel the potatoes and cut them into long, thin strips. Rinse the strips in cold water to remove excess starch and pat them dry with a clean towel.
2
Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot or deep fryer to 350°F (175°C). Carefully add the potato strips in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pot.
3
Fry the potatoes for 3-5 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy. Remove the fries from the oil with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
4
Soak the cooked fries in cold water for 30 minutes to remove excess oil. Drain the fries and pat them dry with a clean towel.
5
Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot or deep fryer to 375°F (190°C). Fry the potatoes again in batches until they are crispy and golden brown.
