How to make homemade French fries

  1. For the fries I use russet potatoes. They have a lower moisture content which allows them to get extra crispy.
  2. Slice the potatoes, leaving the skin on to 1/2 to 1/4 inch thickness.
  3. Soak in cold water for at least 1 hour.
  4. Drain, then rinse with cold water and pat dry.
  5. Heat sunflower oil to 350 degrees either in deep fryer or large heavy pan.
  6. Fry for 5-6 minutes until golden brown. Work in batches to avoid overcrowding them.
  7. Remove the fries from the oil with large slotted spoon and drain on paper towel.
  8. Season with course ground sea salt.
