We just made them as directed in the recipe (and they were fantastic!) but also plan to try them in the fryer too…. Can’t wait to try them again. These were pretty easy. Mine took a bit longer to crisp up thank I expected and I had a lot of breakage. Though they didn’t stick to the bottom of the pan at all. I used a chicken fryer. Thanks for the great directions!!!

I stir mine fairly frequently. I usually end up with a few sticking to the bottom, but not enough to cause problems. How deep of a pot are you using You might want to use a deeper one that allows the fries to circulate easily.

How do you keep them from sticking to the bottom, mine did and caused them to break.

I would guess that would work just fine. I don’t have a deep fryer which is why I use the pot. If you try it, let me know how it goes!

I’m so glad you had success! I too am excited to play with different seasonings in the future!

One of my sons has several anaphylactic food allergies and very limited allowed foods. I have to be careful buying frozen french fries because of added ingredients (milk, wheat, etc). These were perfect to try since it was just the potato and oil. So thankful to find this recipe! The entire family thought they were good. I’m excited to make again and add different seasonings. I’m thinking garlic and parmesan cheese (for the adults)

I wonder if this would work if I put the fries in before I turned on the deep fryer. I would then cook them at a lower temp until they were tender and then crank the heat up high to get them crispy.

It’s almost time to change the oil and clean my fryer, so I think I’ll try it your original way first. I’ll just save the oil to replace the old oil in the fryer.
