Raw Fries

5-6 medium potatoes, peeled, if desired

1.Cut each potato into ⅜-inch strips. Place in large bowl, cover with cold water. Allow to soak 15 minutes, or until ready to fry, to remove surface starch.

3.To cook, choose either the double fry or single fry method from below.

Double Fry

2.Open cover; lift basket to drain position, add raw fries. Do not add more than 1½ pounds of raw fries to basket to prevent boil-over when basket is lowered.
