Steps:
- Peel and rinse the potatoes. Then cut them into sticks by cutting the potato in 4 or 5 vertical pieces, and then cutting each piece into sticks.
- Place them in a large bowl and cover with cold water. Allow them to soak, 2 to 3 hours. (You can also stick them in the fridge and let them soak overnight.)
- When you're ready to make the fries, drain off the water and lay the potatoes on 2 baking sheets lined with paper towels. Blot with paper towels to dry them.
- Heat a few inches of oil in a heavy pot to 300 degrees F. In 3 or 4 batches, cook the potatoes until soft, 4 to 5 minutes per batch. They should not be brown at this point! You just want to start the cooking process. Remove each batch and drain on new/dry paper towels.
- Once all the potatoes have been fried at 300 degrees F, turn up the heat until the oil reaches 400 degrees F. When the oil's hot, start frying the potatoes in batches again, cooking until the fries are golden and crisp. Remove the potatoes from the oil and drain on paper towels.
- Sprinkle with sea salt and dive in!

Steps:
- Peel 2 lb of potatoes; cut into long french-fry sticks, about 3/8 x 3/8 inches thick. Rinse; shake off water.
- Transfer potatoes to a large deep heavy pot, spreading potatoes so they're no more than 2 layers deep. Pour in oil to cover potatoes by 1 inch. Place pot over medium heat. Cook for 15 minutes (oil will begin bubbling gently).
- Continue cooking, occasionally loosening potatoes from the bottom of the pot with a heatproof spatula, until potatoes are very tender, 25-30 minutes more. Increase heat to medium-high and cook until golden and crisp, about 15 minutes longer (oil will bubble more vigorously).
- Using a slotted spoon, transfer fries to paper towels to drain. Season with coarse sea salt.

Steps:
- Peel and rinse the potatoes. Cut each potato lengthwise into 4 or 5 pieces, then cut each piece into sticks. The thinner these are, the crispier they will be. Place the fries in a large bowl. Cover with cold water, then allow them to soak 2 or 3 hours (or you can stick them in the fridge and let them soak overnight).
- When you're ready to make the fries, drain the water and lay the potatoes on 2 baking sheets lined with paper towels. Blot with paper towels to dry.
- Heat a few inches of vegetable oil to 300 degrees F in a heavy pot. In 3 or 4 batches, fry the potatoes about 4 to 5 minutes per batch, or until soft. They should not be brown at all at this point-you just want to start the cooking process. Remove each batch and drain them on new, dry paper towels.
- Once all the potatoes have been fried at 300 degrees F, turn up the heat until the oil temperature reaches 400 degrees F. When the oil is hot, start frying the potatoes in batches again, cooking until golden and crisp. Remove from the oil and drain on fresh paper towels. Sprinkle the fries with sea salt and dive in with the ketchup-mayo mixture.
CHEF JOHN'S FRENCH FRIES
I don't think most people realize that any decent French fry needs to be twice fried. The first frying in done at a lower temperature, which softens the potato and prepares the starchy surface for the second frying's crispification.

Steps:
- Peel the potatoes and cut into 1cm-thick batons. Put into a bowl of cold water and leave to soak for at least 2 hrs to remove the starch from the potatoes - this will help them crisp while frying.
- Drain the potatoes well and pat dry with kitchen paper. Fill a deep pan no more than a third full with oil and heat to 140C, or until a cube of bread dropped in browns in 60 seconds. Fry the French fries in batches for 6 mins per batch until golden straw-coloured, cooked through and lightly crisp. Drain well on kitchen paper.
- Turn the heat up until the oil reaches 180C, or a cube of bread browns in 30 seconds. Fry the French fries again for 2-3 mins per batch until lightly golden and really crisp. Drain on kitchen paper and immediately season with sea salt.

Steps:
- Make the fries: Fill a large bowl with cold water and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice. Peel the potatoes and slice into ¼-inch (6 mm) thick strips about 3 inches (7 cm) long. Transfer the slices to the cold water as you go.
- Rinse the fries by running more cold water into the bowl until the water turns clear, rinsing off any excess starch. Fill the bowl with water and add the remaining tablespoon of lemon juice, then chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
- In a large heavy-bottomed pan, heat 2-3 inches (5-7 cm) of oil over medium-low heat until it reaches 325°F (165°C). Line 2 baking sheet with thick paper, such as brown paper grocery bags.
- Drain the fries, then dry completely using a kitchen towel.
- Cook the potatoes in the hot oil for 6-8 minutes, or until soft and slightly golden in color. Remove the fries from the oil using a wire mesh skimmer and transfer to the prepared baking sheets to drain. Let stand at room temperature for 15-20 minutes.
- Increase the oil temperature to 375°F (190°C). Return the fries to the oil and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the golden brown and crispy. Drain on clean paper bags. Season with the salt.
- Serve the fries in cones of parchment paper topped with your sauce of choice.
- For the curry ketchup: Heat the olive oil a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. When the oil is shimmering, add the onion and cook until soft and translucent, about 2 minutes. Season with the salt. Add the garlic and cook for another minute, until fragrant. Add the curry powder, paprika, chili powder, and cinnamon and cook for 30 seconds, until the spices are fragrant and toasted.
- Add the ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, apple cider vinegar, and honey and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to medium, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove the pot from the heat and let the curry ketchup cool slightly.
- Transfer the ketchup to a tall, narrow container. Using an immersion blender, purée the mixture until smooth, about 3 minutes. Let the mixture cool completely, then thin with water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until you your desired consistency is reached. The curry ketchup can be made up to 1 day before serving. To serve, top the fries with the curry ketchup, mayonnaise, and chopped onion.
- For the garlic chipotle mayo: Cook the garlic cloves in a small, dry skillet over medium-high heat until the cloves are golden with some black spots, about 9 minutes.
- Transfer the garlic to a food processor, along with mayonnaise, lemon juice, chipotle peppers, and salt. Process until combined. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. The roasted garlic chipotle mayo can be made up to 1 day before serving. To serve, top the fries with the garlic chipotle mayo.
- Make the pesto mayo: In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, pesto, and lemon juice until well combined. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. The pesto mayo can be made up to 1 day before serving. To serve, top the fries with the pesto mayo.
- Enjoy!
CLASSIC FRENCH FRIES RECIPE BY TASTY
Learn the proper way to make French fries! The secret is a double-fry method. First, par-fry the potatoes at a low temperature to cook through, then fry a second time at a higher temperature to brown and crisp the outside. The result is a perfectly tender, fluffy interior and a super crispy exterior.

Steps:
- Fill a large, high-walled skillet with canola oil to a depth of about ½ inch. Heat over medium-high heat until the oil temperature reaches 300°F (150°C).
- Peel the potato and cut into ½-inch (1-cm) batons. Dry the potato thoroughly with paper towels.
- Working in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan, par-fry the fries in the hot oil for about 5 minutes, or until lightly browned and tender. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the fries to a paper-towel lined baking sheet to drain. Season with salt.
- Increase the oil temperature to 375°F (190˚C).
- Return the fries to the hot oil and fry until golden brown and crispy, 3-5 minutes.
- Use a slotted spoon to transfer the fries back to the paper towel-lined baking sheet to drain. Season with salt and pepper.
- Serve immediately.
- Enjoy!

EASIER FRENCH FRIES - COLD OIL METHOD (COOK'S ILLUSTRATED)
These delicious, slender fries have a crisp exterior and a creamy interior, contain 1/3 less oil than traditional methods, and could not be easier to make. Recipe is from Cook's Illustrated (July, 2009) and the method is attributed to Michelin-starred French chef Jöel Robuchon. It skips the usual rinsing and soaking and you only need to fry once. You must use Yukon golds (Russets are too starchy).

- Using skimmer or slotted spoon, transfer fries to thick paper bag or paper towels. Season with salt and serve immediately.
