How to Make Paula Deen's Batter Dipped French Fries

  1. Heat 3 cups of oil to 325°F (163°C) in a deep fryer or large, deep pot. Do not fill more than halfway.
  2. Wash and cut 2 pounds of russet potatoes into 1/2-inch thick wedges.
  3. Fry potatoes in batches for 2 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on a wire rack to cool completely.
  4. Increase oil temperature to 360°F (182°C).
  5. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  6. In a separate shallow dish, pour 1 cup evaporated milk.
  7. Dip each cooled potato wedge into the evaporated milk, ensuring it's fully coated, then dredge in the flour mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
  8. Carefully add the battered fries to the hot oil in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. Fry for 5-10 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy, turning occasionally.
  9. Remove fries with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel-lined plate or wire rack. Serve immediately and enjoy!
