Belgian Frites are soft on the inside, impossibly crispy on the outside, and so crunchy you can hear each bite from across the room. There’s a secret to making fries this delicious!

Ingredients
- 5 Idaho potatoes
- 1 Container Sunflower Oil for deep frying
- sea salt
- Paper to make serving cones
Andalouse Dip:
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp tomato paste
- 1 tbsp green bell pepper
- 1 tbsp red bell pepper
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- ¼ tsp salt
- 2 tbsp onions finely chopped
Instructions
For the Fries:
- Peel potatoes and cut into fry shapes (about ½ inch thick and 4 inches long).
- Fill a bowl with water and add the raw potatoes. Let sit for a few minutes until the water becomes cloudy, empty the bowl, refill with fresh water, and put the raw potato fries back in. Continue until the water remains clear.
- In a large pot, heat oil to 325 degrees. Add the potatoes (about ¼ at a time) and fry for about 4-5 minutes.
- Remove from the oil and let drain on paper towel. Ensure that oil comes back to 325 degrees before adding your next round of fries.
- Allow the potatoes to cool completely-- for at least a half an hour. When the potatoes are completely cooled, reheat the oil to 375 degrees.
- Sprinkle salt on the potatoes. Put them in the oil again, this time frying to your liking (about 3-6 minutes).
- Remove, drain, salt again, and serve immediately with andalouse sauce.
For the Andalouse Sauce:
- Mix all and let sit for one hour or overnight.
