Wash and peel the potatoes. Cut them into even sticks, about 1/4 inch thick for uniform cooking.
Soak the cut potatoes in cold water for at least 15 minutes to remove excess starch. This helps achieve crispiness.
Drain the potatoes and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel to remove moisture, which can cause splattering when frying.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep pan or heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer for accuracy.
Carefully add the potatoes to the hot oil in batches to prevent overcrowding. Fry for about 5-6 minutes until they are golden brown and crispy.
Remove the fries with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Season with salt and pepper while they are still hot.
Serve the fries hot with your choice of dipping sauce, like ketchup or mayo. Enjoy!
