List of Ingredients
6 large red potatoes, skins on

1 large sweet onion
Salt and pepper
Recipe
Using a large pot, boil potatoes with skins on until almost done. Allow to
cool, and cut potatoes into long strips, approximately 1/4 to 1/2-inch
wide and thick. In a large pot or fryer, heat oil to 350 degrees. Par-fry
the potatoes for 5 to 6 minutes. Potatoes should be limp. Remove potatoes
and place onto paper towels and allow to drain. Let sit for 1 to 2 hours
at room temperature.
Cut onions into 1/2-inch wedges. Just before serving time, place potatoes
and onions into oil heated to 375 degrees F for 3 to 5 minutes, or until
brown. Remove fries from oil, drain on paper towel, and while still hot,
season with salt and pepper
