Time 1h50m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

2 large potatoes
Vegetable oil, for deep frying
Kosher salt
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon seasoned salt
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

For the potatoes: Spiralize the potatoes into fries and soak in water in a container for 1 hour in the refrigerator.
For the batter: Combine the flour, paprika, seasoned salt, cayenne, some salt and pepper and 1 cup water in a large pitcher and pour into a large resealable plastic bag.
Drain the fries and pat dry. Put them in the bag with the batter and massage to make sure they are coated thoroughly with it. Set aside for 30 minutes so the fries can absorb all the flavors.
Heat about 3 inches of oil in a heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat to 365 degrees F.
Cook the fries in batches until golden and crispy, about 2 minutes per batch. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate, sprinkle with salt and serve immediately.

While they don't get the same love as French fries, home fries, or steak fries, cottage fries more than hold their own against their potato side dish fraternity brothers.

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

4 baking (russet) potatoes, sliced into 3/8-inch thick rounds
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
1 pinch herbes de provence, or to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat and set aside.
Combine potatoes, salt, ground black pepper, cayenne pepper, and herbes de provence in a large bowl. Drizzle olive oil over potatoes and stir to evenly coat.
Place potatoes on baking sheet, spaced evenly, and bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes.
Remove from oven, flip over each potato slice, and return to the oven for another 15 minutes. Continue cooking and flipping until potatoes are well browned, about 30 minutes. Potatoes should be crispy around edges, but still soft in the center.

Tips:

* For a crispier fry, use Yukon Gold or russet potatoes. * Cut the potatoes into uniform 1/2-inch thick slices to ensure even cooking. * Soak the potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes before frying to remove excess starch and help them crisp up. * Pat the potatoes dry before frying to prevent splattering. * Fry the potatoes in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan and ensure they cook evenly. * Use a large skillet or Dutch oven with high sides to prevent splattering. * Use a wire mesh skimmer or slotted spoon to remove the potatoes from the oil to drain excess grease. * Season the potatoes immediately after frying with salt, pepper, and your favorite seasonings. * Serve the potatoes hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
