List of Ingredients
2 large russet potatoes
1 48 oz. can shortening (or use oil)
salt
Recipe
Slice potatoes into 1/4 inch square strips. Rinse fries in a
large bowl filled with cold water. The water should become
milky. Dump out and add more water to cover plus ice. Let sit
for one hour. Heat shortening or oil in fryer (...wok or
whatever you have that is big enough) to 375 degrees. Remove
fries to a towel to dry for 10-15 minutes. Split up fries and
add to oil for 1 1/2 minutes at a time. Don't let them begin to
brown. Remove to paper towel to drain and cool. When all are
cooked, drained, and cooled, put in a resealable bag and freeze
4-5 hours. Reheat oil and add 1/2 fries at a time. Fry 4 1/2 -
6 minutes or until golden brown. Drain on paper towel and salt
generously. Cook and drain second batch in same manner.
