Ingredients:
- Russet potatoes
- Oil
- Cornstarch
- Flour
- Salt
Directions:
- Slice the potatoes ½ inch thick with a serrated knife if possible (you can use a French fry cutter too).
- Soak them in cold water for at least an hour. The longer you soak them, the crispier they will be.
- Rinse them two times with cold water and pat completely dry.
- Mix equal parts cornstarch and flour in a bowl and add water. Mix until combined into a paste.
- Coat your potato slices in the cornstarch/flour paste.
- Heat oil to 300 degrees.
- Fry the potatoes for 5-6 minutes. Don’t place too many potato slices in at a time; they won’t fry properly if you do.
- Use a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel when they’re done frying.
- Increase your oil heat to 400 degrees.
- Fry in batches until golden brown, which is for about 5 minutes.
- Place them on a paper towel and sprinkle immediately with salt.
- Serve with your favorite dipping sauce and enjoy!
