Directions
Step 1
Peel the potatoes and cut them into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick.

Place the potato strips in a large bowl of cold water to remove excess starch and let them sit for at least 15 minutes.

Drain the potatoes and pat them dry thoroughly using a kitchen towel or paper towels.
Step 5
Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot or deep fryer to 325°F (165°C).
Step 6
Carefully add the potatoes into the hot oil in small batches, frying them for 4-5 minutes until they start to turn a light golden color.
Step 7
Remove the potatoes from the oil and let them drain on a rack or paper towels. Allow them to cool for at least 10 minutes.
Step 8
Raise the oil temperature to 375°F (190°C).
Step 9
Refry the potatoes in batches for another 3-4 minutes until they become golden brown and crispy.
Step 10
Remove the fries from the oil and immediately toss them with the prepared spice mixture to ensure even coating.
