Not only are potatoes cheap, but they are also delicious and highly nutritious. Potatoes contain many beneficial substances such as potassium, vitamin C, fiber, antioxidants, etc., which have many positive effects on health, such as promoting digestion, reducing inflammation, improving sleep, enhancing brain health, benefiting bones, and improving skin health.
From this ingredient, you can make many delicious and diverse dishes such as potato soup with meat, chicken with potatoes, potato soup, cheese and potato salad, potato cakes… and the most popular one is french fries.
French fries are not only a “kid’s favorite” dish, but also loved by adults. The hot and fragrant pieces of french fries are often dipped in chili sauce or ketchup to enhance the flavor.
Although this is a dish with a simple cooking method, many people think that homemade french fries cannot be as crispy and tasty as those in restaurants. To make crispy, soft, and long-lasting golden french fries, you can follow this cooking method.
How to make french fries
1. Ingredients for making french fries
– Potatoes
– Spices: Cooking oil, white vinegar, salt
2. Cooking method for french fries
Step 1: Prepare the ingredients
– After buying potatoes, peel and wash them. Then use a knife to cut the potatoes into evenly thick slices. Depending on your preference, you can cut the potatoes into large finger-sized pieces and then wash them again.
– Take a bowl of clean water, add a little white vinegar, and soak the potatoes for about 10 minutes. This not only helps clean the starch on the cut surface of the potatoes, but also prevents the potatoes from breaking when frying.
Step 2: Blanch the potatoes
– Place a pot of water on the stove and bring it to a boil. When the water is boiling, add the potatoes and blanch them for about 2 minutes, then add a spoonful of salt.
– After blanching, take out the potatoes and place them in a bowl of cold water. Wait until the potatoes cool down, then remove them and drain the water.
– To make the potatoes crispy and not soggy, put the prepared potatoes in the freezer for about 3 hours.
Step 3: Fry the potatoes
– Place a frying pan on the stove, add cooking oil, and heat it up to 50% before adding the potatoes from the freezer to fry.
– Wait until the potatoes turn golden, then remove them and let them cool.
– Heat the cooking oil again and wait until the oil is slightly hot, then fry the partially fried potatoes again.
– Fry until the potatoes turn golden brown, then remove them and let them drain.
When the french fries are fried twice, they will have a very appealing color. When eating, you will feel the crispy crust and the soft and fragrant inside. You can enjoy french fries as a snack and dip them in chili sauce for more flavor.
3. Some notes when making french fries
– To make the french fries more appealing, you can add cheese, pickles or seaweed to make delicious potato salad.
