Ingredients

4 large potatoes
3 cups oil, for frying
1 tsp salt
½ tsp black pepper

Directions

Peel the potatoes and cut them into thin, even strips.

Soak them in cold water for 20–30 minutes, then drain and dry thoroughly.

Heat oil and fry the potatoes until lightly cooked but not browned. Remove and drain.

Increase the oil temperature and fry again until golden and crispy.

Season with salt, black pepper and garlic powder. Serve hot.
