Homemade French Fries!

UPDATE: After a LOT of months of making french fries, I realized this isn’t the best method. I might post about it later! 

I have finally made crispy french fries from scratch. Aaaaah, those were very tasty!

Very crispy and crunchy, too!

Bring the potatoes and then:

- Peel ‘em

- Cut them to french fries size (I like mine a bit large)

- Wash them

- Soak them in cold water and put in the fridge till you are in the mood to fry

Then,

you heat up frying oil in the pan, while it’s heating up, you’ll make the flour mixture that you’ll dip the potatoes in before frying, which consists of:

- 1 cup flour

- teaspoon of salt

- teaspoon of garlic powder

- teaspoon of onion powder

- teaspoon of pepper flakes

- teaspoon of paprika

and then after all of those are mixed add:

- 1/2+ cup of water, or as much as you need.

Dip the potatoes in the mixture ONE BY ONE and then drop them in the HOT oil.

These are not frozen french fries so they will take a little while to be done, maybe 5-10 minutes? I have no idea. I didn’t count. I am sorry. But when they’re done, you’ll know!

I had this with ranch dressing. GOODNESS.

Happy Cooking!
