Salchipapas (Beef Sausages and French Fries)

Make Homemade French Fries

1. Rinse and peel the potatoes, and slice them into 1/2-inch thick strips.
2. Soak the sliced potatoes in cold water for at least an hour (or overnight).
3. Rinse them twice with cold water and pat dry completely with paper towels.
4. Heat oil in a deep fryer or a large heavy pan to 325 degrees. Carefully add the potato slices in small batches and fry for about 3 minutes until pale and softened. (Make sure not to overcrowd the pan)
5. Use a slotted spoon to place them on a plate lined with paper towels.
6. Increase the temperature to 400 degrees. Carefully add the fries again and fry in batches until golden brown, about 3-5 minutes.
7. Use the slotted spoon to remove them from oil and place on paper towels.
8. Sprinkle with salt.
