Comment préparer Authentic Belgian Fries French Fries
- Peel and cut 2 lbs of russet potatoes into 1/2 inch thick batons. Ensure they are all roughly the same size for even cooking.
- Rinse the potatoes thoroughly under cold water to remove excess starch. This is crucial for extra crispiness!
- Soak the potatoes in cold water for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours).
- Drain the potatoes and pat them completely dry with clean kitchen towels or paper towels.
- Heat about 3 cups of vegetable oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or deep fryer to 325°F (160°C).
- Carefully add the potatoes to the hot oil in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. Fry for about 8-10 minutes, until they are slightly softened but not browned.
- Remove the potatoes with a slotted spoon and drain on a wire rack or paper towels.
- Increase the oil temperature to 375°F (190°C).
- Once the oil is hot, carefully add the pre-fried potatoes back to the oil in batches. Fry for another 3-5 minutes, until golden brown and perfectly crispy.
- Remove the fries and drain on a wire rack or paper towels. Season immediately with sea salt (about 2 teaspoons, or to taste).
- Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade Belgian fries!
