Yummy & Quick Dishes with MOR
Curly Fries
Ingredients
- 3 large russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- Salt and pepper to taste
- MOR's oil for frying
Instructions
- Preheat your deep fryer to 375°F (190°C). If you don't have a deep fryer, you can use a large pot with at least 3 inches of oil.
- Peel the potatoes and use a spiralizer or a mandoline slicer to create curly potato strips. Soak the strips in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.
- Drain the water from the potatoes and pat them dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, mix together cornstarch, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, cayenne pepper (if using), salt, and pepper
- Toss the potato strips in the spice mixture until well coated
- Working in batches, carefully place the potato strips in the hot oil. Fry for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon or a spider strainer to remove the fries from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate.
- Season the fries with additional salt and pepper if needed. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
