Instructions

  1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
  2. Blanch (boil) the potato strips in the water for 2 minutes.
  3. Remove the potato strips from the water and set aside.
  4. Meanwhile, heat about 2 inches of oil in a wok or a very VERY large saucepan to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  5. CAUTION: Do not fill your pan even close to the top; your oil will expand during cooking and will catch fire if it pours out.
  6. Fry the potato strips, in small batches, for about 5 minutes or until golden brown.
  7. Drain on paper towels.
  8. Sprinkle with the seasoning salt as soon as they come out of the oil.
  9. Cooking Tip: You can keep your cooked batches of fries hot while you are still frying the others by putting them in a preheated 250 degree Fahrenheit oven.
