How to Prepare

1. Wash and peel the potatoes (if desired).
2. Cut the potatoes into uniform sticks, about 1/4 inch thick.
3. Rinse the cut potatoes in cold water to remove excess starch.
4. Pat the potatoes dry with paper towels to ensure crispiness.
5. Heat oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 325°F (165°C).
6. Fry the potatoes in batches for 3-4 minutes until they are soft but not browned.
7. Remove the fries with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
8. Increase the oil temperature to 375°F (190°C).
9. Fry the potatoes again in batches for 2-3 minutes until golden and crispy.
10. Drain on paper towels, season with salt, and serve hot.
