How to make Long Fries
Preparation
Peel the potatoes and cut them into long, thin strips.
Soak the potato strips in water for about 10 minutes to remove excess starch.
Drain the potatoes and pat them dry with a kitchen towel.
Cooking
Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
Add the potato strips to the hot oil in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan.
Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes.
Remove the fries from the oil and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil.
Season with salt and pepper while they are still hot.
