Crispy homemade French Fries are easy to make, and even easier to eat!! The key to crispy fries is to soak the potatoes in cold water prior to cooking, to remove some of the starch.
I’ve tried a few different ways and temps, and this is what works best for me. If you have a different method, please let me know!
Cutting the fries is no problem at all with the Rapid-Prep Mandoline:

Upright Mandoline
Our Rapid-Prep Mandoline lets you safely slice, dice, julienne, and french-fry cut fruits and veggies in seconds. Simply select your cut, adjust its thickness from 8 thickness settings, and get prepping. Our mandoline’s stainless-steel blade cuts through tough veggies, so you can transform a variety of ingredients into beautiful slices.
You can cut ingredients with confidence—our Mandoline is designed to safely keep hands clear of blades. When you’ve finished prepping, you can store the food chute and food pusher in the food catch tray and fold it flat, though you’ll use it so often, you may want to leave it on your counter!
I used my 6-Qt. (5.7 L) Enameled Dutch Oven for frying:

Enameled Cast Iron Dutch Oven
This beautiful 6-qt. (5.7-L) pot is ready to go directly from your stove (including induction) or oven to your table. You’ll reach for it again and again because it’s low maintenance and versatile. The lid has a sturdy handle that makes it easy to manage even with an oven mitt. And the inside of the lid is covered with bumps that redirect the condensation in the pot to drip back onto the food, making it a self-basting pot. This makes your food juicy, tender, and more flavorful.
Do More With a Dutch Oven
Dutch ovens are known for low-and-slow braises and special-occasion meals. But they can do much more. Heat-safe up to 500°F (260°C), this pot is ideal for simmering sauces and cooking pasta and grains. And, they can even make a delicious loaf of bread.
About Enameled Cast Iron
Enameled cast iron is the kind of cookware that will become a fixture at every special meal you make—and that includes weeknight meals. The light enameled exterior means you can start using it right away—no seasoning required—and you can see food browning, so you can avoid scorching it. The beautifully enameled exterior lets you bring this cookware right from the stove or oven to the table, and cast iron’s excellent heat retention means food stays hot and delicious—even if not everyone makes it to the table as soon as dinner’s ready.

Ingredients
- 4 russet potatoes peeled, if you prefer
- Water to cover potatoes
- Canola oil for frying can sub vegetable or peanut oil
- Sea salt to taste
- Black pepper to taste
Instructions
Peel potatoes and use the Rapid-Prep Mandoline to cut into sticks, or cut the potatoes into four pieces, then slice into sticks.



Cover with cold water and refrigerate for 10 minutes – 4 hours to help remove the starch.

Drain potatoes and lay them on a clean kitchen towel to dry the potatoes, covering them with another kitchen towel to pat dry.



Meanwhile, heat oil in Dutch oven to 300°F/150⁰C.
First Fry
When potatoes are dry and the temperature is reached, add them in batches and cook for 10-12 minutes until softened. Remove to rack or paper towels and continue this process until all potatoes have been softened. Bring the temperature of the oil to 375°F/190°C.



Second Fry
Add the fries back to the Dutch oven, again in batches, and cook 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Remove to wire rack to drain and immediately sprinkle with sea salt and pepper, if desired.
