Ingredients
- 5 potatoes Yukon gold or russet, medium
- 1 tablespoon coarse sea salt or to taste
- 1 tablespoon fresh oregano leaves
- sunflower oil for frying
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F
- Scrub the potatoes clean. Dry them well and place them in an oven-proof pan—Bake for 1 hour and 30 minutes.
- Let the potatoes cool for 20 minutes so they are easy to handle, and then tear them with your hands into chunky pieces.
- Place a kitchen towel or paper towel on a large plate and transfer the potatoes. Refrigerate until they are completely cooled.
- Fill your deep fryer with sunflower oil and place in high heat. When oil is hot add a batch of the potato chunks and fry for a couple of minutes or until they are golden brown and the edges are crispy.
- Drain potatoes from the oil by using the fryer wire basket or a slotted spoon. Place potatoes on paper towels to absorb more oil. Season fries immediately when they are hot with coarse sea salt.
- Sprinkle some fresh oregano leaves or dried oregano and serve.
Notes
- While frying the potatoes, stir just a couple of times, so they do not stick together and develop nice crispy edges.

- I use my dutch oven as a deep-fryer for fries, it gets the oil very hot, and the fries come out crispy.
