Begin by peeling the potatoes and cutting them into long strips.
While you work through this process on the three potatoes, make sure to start getting your oil to 275°F. Keep your potatoes in a bowl of cold water (this will keep them from losing their moisture and turning brown).
When your oil is at 275°F you can begin the first deep fry of your fries. You will have to do this in batches because you do not want to crowd the pot. Make sure to dry the fries with a paper towel (you do not want to put water into the hot oil; it will cause it to pop). You want to keep the fries in the oil for about 5 minutes. Make sure that they don’t brown just like the image above.
Once you have given the fries the first light fry, let your oil climb in temperature to 375°F. Once it has reached the desired temperature, begin frying the fries again. You want to leave them in the oil for about seven minutes or once they begin to have a golden brown coating. Remove the fries from the oil once they are cooked and salt to flavor.
