Recipe: Perfect My Homemade Seasoned French Fries Delicious, fresh and tasty.

My Homemade Seasoned French Fries. So I tried batter - after all it makes chicken, shrimp, and onion rings crispy so why not potatoes. Now even my husband can't get enough of these French fries. They even stay crispy when you reheat in the microwave.

Give your French fries an extra kick with this seasoning made from garlic salt, onion salt, and paprika.

French fries to me are the perfect side to so many things.

Burgers, steaks, baby back ribs… I really enjoy some homemade goodies.

You can cook My Homemade Seasoned French Fries using 4 ingredients and 9 steps. Here is how you cook that.

Ingredients of My Homemade Seasoned French Fries

  1. Prepare 5 lb of bag of russet potatoes (larger sized potatoes).

  2. Prepare 1 of oil for frying.

  3. Prepare 1 of seasoned salt to taste.

  4. It’s 1 of pepper to taste.

But, they need more than just salt, they need to be seasoned to actually taste good.

Salt has its own place and my French fries isn't one of them.

I used to make them and try to accomplish frying them to get them.

I am a PURIST when it comes to my fries.

My Homemade Seasoned French Fries instructions

  1. peel potatoes..

  2. start heating oil in a deep skillet filled high enough to cover potatoes and give them room to move around (or use a deep fryer).

  3. cut potatoes longwise into half inch thick slices. then lay flat and cut each slice again a half inch thick. so u have half inch thick sticks. keep smaller ones and edges. itll be fine. ( I use a potato cutter).

  4. once grease is hot ( test by tossing in a piece of potato if it sinks them floats within about 30 seconds ur good) toss in about 1/5 of ur potato sticks. make sure u dont overload ur pan or it will cool grease and fries will be soggy..

  5. cook about 10-12 minutes stirring them halfway through. they should be nice and golden. if u want them more crisp just cook longer..

  6. remove from grease and drain onto paper towel lined plate..

  7. sprinkle with season salt and pepper to taste..

  8. repeat until ur out of potato sticks…

  9. serve.. :).

I like salt and A LOT OF IT!

But, if I am feeling frisky and spicy, seasoned fries are the way to go.

Some "seasoned" fries are actually coated in a thin breading that has herbs and spices in it.

If you like to keep it simple, a good dusting of the perfect seasoning mix is all you need.

Peel if desired and cut into either wedges or sticks.
