French Fries

French fries, one of the famous and well known snack preferred by most of us. Many think that French fries originated from France, but actually they are from Belgium. These fries got this name based on the process of being deep fried, which was a part of French culinary.



Ingredients:

Potato - 3 (large)
Oil - 2 cups
Salt - just to sprinkle

Method:

1) Wash the potatoes very well and peel the skin.



2) Make thin potato strips of about 1/2 inch thickness.



3) Soak the potato strips in cold water for about 15 mins.



4) Pat dry them by placing in paper towel. See that there are no water drops, as we are going to deep fry them.



5) Heat oil and put the potato strips few at a time and deep fry them, until it gets light golden brown color. It takes about 5 to 6 mins to get it done.



6) Finally sprinkle some salt over the potato fries, when they are hot.



7) Serve hot fries with tomato sauce/ketchup.



Hot and crispy french fries are ready for snacking.
