I made these a few days ago, and was just really lazy in organizing this. So here are the simple steps:
1. Start with a Russet potato
2. Peel the skin
3. Check out the naked potato! O.O
4. I find it easiest to slice the ends off and make a rectanglish shape. It just makes cutting easier for me.
5. Chop into yummy bite size stix!
6. Soak in water / Wash / Rinse starchy residue.
7. Drain and dry off as much water as you can, water and oil don't mix plus it makes a mess and you can get oil splatter all over. It doesn't feel good on bare skin!!! ><
8. Heat up some canola oil to about 325 F (med-lo-ish heat) (I usually do then when the 'tato is being chopped)
9. Cook for about 6 mins (first time)
10. Remove from oil, Drain on some paper towels, and heat the oil to about 375 F (med high heat)
11 Cook again for about 3-4 mins or until they start to float or look the color / crispy texture of your preference.
12. Serve with a variety of salts or my preference, self concocted chili powers :)
yum yum!
Total cooking time including slicing, rince time, dry time and fry time: about 20 mins! The good news is, if you eat these, you might never go back to eating fast food fries ever again :)
