French Fried Potatoes
French fried potatoes, also known as french fries, are a popular dish made by deep-frying cut potatoes until they are crispy and golden brown. They are often seasoned with salt and can be enjoyed on their own or as a side dish with burgers, sandwiches, or other entrees.
Ingredients
- 4 large potatoes
- Vegetable oil for frying
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- Peel the potatoes and cut them into evenly-sized strips, about 1/4 inch thick.
- Soak the potato strips in a bowl of cold water for about 30 minutes to remove excess starch.
- Drain and pat the potato strips dry with a kitchen towel.
- Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C).
- Carefully add the potato strips in batches to the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the fryer.
- Fry the potatoes for about 5-6 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy.
- Using a slotted spoon, remove the fries from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- Season the fries with salt while they are still hot.
- Serve the French fries hot and dip the fries in your favorite sauce. Enjoy!
