Homemade French Fries

by Editorial Staff

Trying French fries recipes! You can cook fries at home, and even without having a deep fryer or another special device available – the most ordinary saucepan is also suitable for cooking, and the result will be indistinguishable from fries in some fast-food restaurants. Children will be delighted 🙂 And as a snack with beer, for example, such potatoes go great. And as a side dish to some meat or fish dish. Of course, such potatoes are quite harmful, but sometimes you can pamper yourself 🙂

Homemade French Fries Instructions

  1. In a thick-bottomed saucepan, heat all the vegetable oil. It should boil.
  2. In the meantime, the oil is heating up – cut the peeled and washed potatoes into thin strips. Size – slightly larger than finished fries, you probably know what it looks like.
  3. Salt the chopped potatoes, let them dry. If there are water droplets on the potatoes – when put in oil, you will see fireworks.
  4. Therefore, drain the potatoes well. When the oil boils, we dip our chopped potatoes into it.
  5. Fry for 3-4 minutes – and take it out of the pan using a slotted spoon.
  6. The crispy but soft fries inside are ready – no deep fat fryer needed. All that remains is to wait for the oil to drain from the potatoes, and it can be served with ketchup or another favorite sauce.
