Ingredients
- 2 lbs potatoes peeled and sliced into fries
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon garlic salt
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- pinch of cayenne pepper
- 1/4 - 1/2 cup water as needed
- oil for frying
Instructions
- Add 3 inches of oil to a large sauce pan and heat over medium heat until 375 degrees.
- Sift together the flour and seasonings in a large bowl. Add 1/4 cup of water and mix well. Add additional water as needed until the batter is thin enough to drizzle off of your spoon.
- Add a handful of fries to the batter and toss to coat.
- Place the fries into the hot oil one at a time. Do not add the fries all at once as they will clump together.
- Fry until the outsides are crisp and browned and the insides are soft and fluffy, about 10 minutes.
- Drain on a paper towel lined plate and serve hot.
