Ingredients
- 4 medium Russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh parsley
Directions
Step 1
Peel the potatoes and cut them into evenly sized cubes, about 1 inch each.
Step 2
Rinse the potato cubes under cold water to remove excess starch. Pat them dry thoroughly with a clean kitchen towel.
Step 3
In a large bowl, combine cornstarch, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
Step 4
Add the potato cubes to the bowl and toss them until they are well-coated with the cornstarch mixture.
Step 5
Heat the vegetable oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat. The oil should be hot but not smoking.
Step 6
Carefully add the coated potato cubes to the skillet in a single layer. Do not overcrowd the pan; you may need to fry the potatoes in batches.
Step 7
Fry the potatoes, turning occasionally, for about 10 to 15 minutes until they are golden brown and crispy on all sides.
Step 8
Remove the fried potatoes from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Step 9
Sprinkle the hot potatoes with freshly chopped parsley for garnish.
Step 10
Serve the vegan crispy fried potatoes immediately for the best texture.
