Ingredients
Potatoes!!! Good ol' Russet is best
2 quarts water
1/4 cup salt
Frying oil like peanut oil
Any toppings you like. Always opt for adventure with a spicy aioli or chopped garlic drizzle or even some white truffle oil!
A slicer will always be easy but if you do not have one chop your potatoes as thin as you like em. The thicker they are the more like french fries they will be. Once you are done slicing your potatoes (here is the crunch secret!!) place them in a large bowl with about 2 quarts of water and 1/4 cup of salt. Let them sit for about 20 minutes and let some of that starch out. After that dry your potatoes to reduce splatter as you fry. Drop them into your pot of hot oil or your deep fryer. I prefer a darker crisp :) Pull them out with a strainer and quickly add any salt or pepper to taste. Enjoy!
