Homemade French Fries
1.
A larger potato, peeled and washed
2.
First cut into even thick slices, about 5-6mm, the thickness determines the thickness of the fries, you decide by yourself
3.
Then cut into even strips, as shown in the picture (leftovers, I discarded them, I don’t like unevenness)
4.
Add appropriate amount of water to the pot, boil, pour in the cut potato strips and cook for 1 minute on high heat
5.
In the process of cooking, you can use a round spoon to move the bottom twice to make the whole heat evenly. Don't use sharp spatula or chopsticks to turn it roughly. In fact, you don't need to worry about them.
6.
Cook until the potato strips are clear, turn off the heat and remove
7.
Boiled potato chips, not broken or broken
8.
Water control for 5-10 minutes
9.
Prepare cornstarch, it’s cornstarch, nothing else. I tried it with tapioca starch before, and it was a mess. There was an urge to pour the whole pot of fries and oil into the trash can.
10.
Pour in the right amount of cornstarch, don’t pour too much at one time, you can add it if it’s not enough
11.
Shake, bang and bang, the purpose is to evenly coat the potato strips with cornstarch
12.
In the previous step, the cornstarch was obviously not enough, so just invert a little bit and shake again.
13.
The sticky potato chips are separated manually. After all, there is no permanent banquet in the world😂
14.
Add some cornstarch and shake it evenly
15.
Once it’s wrapped, don’t wrap too much cornstarch. Pour a lot of cooking oil into the pot and start heating
16.
When the oil temperature reaches 60% to 70% hot, pour in the French fries and turn to medium heat. Don’t turn it with tools yet. Wait a while. Heat evenly (there is no water in the oil, after the potato chips are wrapped in cornstarch, there is no need to worry about being splashed by the oil with chopsticks, not at all)
17.
During the frying process (the potato chips coated with cornstarch will not stick during the frying process~)
18.
Medium to large fire exploded, the surface is slightly yellow
19.
Close 🔥 fish out
20.
Open the fire, the oil temperature is 7-8% hot, pour in the French fries and re-fry, deep fry until golden brown, quickly remove it (be fast, otherwise it will be mushy~)
21.
Turn off the heat, fish up to control the oil, put a piece of oil-absorbing paper in the small basin, pour the oil-controlled French fries into it, shake it a few times to absorb some of the oil on the surface
22.
Choose a plate you like, fill it with fried fries, dip it in ketchup, it’s super delicious
23.
French fries and grilled wings are a perfect match‼ ️ The taste of French fries is definitely not inferior to KFC, and the oil at home is cleaner, and it is super safe for children to eat (‖´_ゝ`)
Tips:
1. The key question, say it three times, corn starch × 3;
2. During the frying process, turn the French fries gently, don't puncture them, it will affect the appearance;
3. You can also cook more potato strips, control the moisture, and coat cornstarch evenly. If there are two potato strips sticking together, separate them first, and coat the cornstarch so that it will not stick. Put it in the refrigerator and freeze. When the French fries, take them out and fry them directly;
