How to make french fries?

How do i make those french fries more crisp?

  • I love to make french fries at home often . Is there any way to make them more crisp?

  • Answer:

    Let them sit on the counter for about 10 min after you cut them. They'll start to turn brown & look gross but that's what you want. Pat them with a paper towel to dry them off some. Fry them twice. 1st batch is to just cook the fries & let them drain & cool a bit. They'll be soft & sticky. Now fry them in 2 small batches to get crispy. Of course you have trust you own judgement on how many to put in the fryer,you don't want any accidents. Good Luck!

This is what I do. I don't have exact temps, but when I was younger I worked at Nathan's and they did it. Fry them in a lower temperature first. You want hot oil, but not to brown them right away. They will take on almost a translucent color. Remove them, place on paper towel and season with salt. Let them cool slightly while you turn up the heat. Then let them get brown and crispy and drain and reseason again.

Hey,i'm a great french fries lover..i like to eat them very much... The best way to make them crispy is when you are peeling potatoes,peel them in thin slices and not the fat ones...OIL and Crispness Have No Connections as far as i know...This Would Help You Surely...please try it for once...

Use Russet potatoes. Cut to size and soak in a bowl of cold water for 30 minutes. Drain potatoes thoroughly, removing any excess water. In a fry pan, bring oil rto 320 degrees, submerge the potatoes in the oil. Working in small batches, fry for 2 to 3 minutes until they are pale and floppy. Remove from oil, drain, and cool to room temperature. Increase the temperature of the oil to 375 degrees. Re-immerse fries and cook until crisp and golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes.

This is the perfect way to make crispy homemade fries. After you cut your fries parboil them in water with a little salt then drain and fry. Promise they will stay crispy. DON'T overboil only 2 or 3 minutes at a rolling boil.

Let them soak in ice water before frying.

when you place the oil on the stove let the oil be really hot then pu tin the fries, don't stir them for a couple of minutes (if you stir them they become mushy) let them cook for a while at high and they will be crispy

Put them in ice water for 10 minutes prior to frying.
