Potato Frites French Fries

Usually served along side a steak,
potato frites are easy to make at home.
They are crispy on the outside and
creamy good tasting on the inside.
I like to serve these with beef gravy.

Ingredients:
2 russet potatoes
2 tablespoons corn starch
peanut oil for deep frying
salt to taste
beef gravy for dipping

Directions:
Cut the ends off of the potatoes,
slice into 1/4" french fries or frites.
Place in a bowl and cover with cold water.
Let sit for 30 minutes to remove starch.
Drain and pat dry then lay on baking sheet
and allow to air dry another 30 minutes.
Place potatoes in a large mixing bowl and
toss with the corn starch.
Heat oil to 325 degrees F.
Cook potatoes in batches to cook through
for about 5 minutes then remove to drain.
Raise heat to 375 degrees F. and refry the
potatoes to a golden brown crispy color.
Remove, drain and season with salt.
Serve with beef gravy as a dipping sauce.
