Ingredients

• 4 pieces Large russet potatoes
• 1.5 litres Vegetable oil
• 2 teaspoons Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 2 teaspoons Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 4 pieces Wooden skewers
• 2 tablespoons Chopped parsley

Directions

Step 1

Wash and scrub the potatoes thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt. Optionally, you can peel the potatoes if desired, but leaving the skin on provides a rustic texture.

Step 2

Insert a wooden skewer lengthwise through the center of each potato.

Step 3

Using a sharp knife, start cutting from the top of the potato in a spiral fashion, making sure the knife reaches the skewer but does not cut it. Rotate the potato as needed to maintain a consistent spiral cut. Gently pull the potato apart to spread the spirals evenly along the skewer.

Step 4

Place the vegetable oil in a large, deep pot or a deep fryer and heat to 350°F (175°C).

Step 5

In a small bowl, mix together the paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper to make the seasoning.

Step 6

Carefully lower each skewered potato into the hot oil and fry for approximately 10-15 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy.

Step 7

Using tongs, remove the potatoes from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.

Step 8

Immediately sprinkle the hot potato twisters with the seasoning mixture, ensuring each spiral is evenly coated.

Step 9

Garnish the potato twisters with chopped parsley for a fresh flavor and serve them while hot and crispy.
