Freshly baked fries

Peel the potatoes, cut them lengthwise into slices of 0.5cm and then into strips. Meanwhile, heat the fryer to 150°C, rinse the fries thoroughly and dry them well. Divide this amount into 3 portions, too many at once in the basket is not good. Fry them for about 5 minutes, not to color them but to cook them.

Do the test by pressing a fry between your thumb and index finger. If it is nice and soft, you can take them out; if they are still hard, they need to fry longer. Drain them onto a plate lined with baking paper and fry the rest in the same way.

Now increase your temperature to 180°C. Now you fry the fries until golden brown and crispy. Drain onto a plate with kitchen paper and serve immediately with some salt on top.
