Homemmade Simple Fries

Learn to make homemade fries with this SheKnows how-to!






Ingredients:
2 1/2 pounds russet potatoes, peeled
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon garlic salt
1 teaspoon onion salt
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon paprika
½ cup water, or as needed
1 cup vegetable oil for frying
Directions:
1. Slice potatoes into French fries
2. Place into cold water so they won't turn brown while you prepare the oil
3. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat
4. While the oil is heating, mix the flour, garlic salt, onion salt, (regular) salt, and paprika into a large bowl
5. Gradually stir in enough water so that the mixture can be drizzled from a spoon
6. Dip potato slices into the batter and place in the hot oil so they are not touching at first. The fries must be placed into the skillet one at a time, or they will clump together.
7. Fry until golden brown and crispy
8. Remove and drain on paper towels
