Homestyle French Fry

How to make Homestyle French Fry Recipe - If I could have just one type of fry, this would be it. Skin-on potato fries have an earthy taste that goes well with just about any comfort food. The slight tang of buttermilk and the battered crunch of these fries should not be missed.

Ingredients:
6 fresh Idaho Russet Burbank potatoes (12 to 15 ounces each)
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 cups buttermilk
2 teaspoons garlic salt
1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley
Peanut oil
Sea salt
Barbecue Mayonnaise

Cut and Rinse:
Scrub and wash the potatoes. Leaving the skin on, cut the potatoes into lengths a little less than 1/2 inch square using a knife with a sharp blade or a fry cutter. Place the cut potatoes in a large bowl filled with cold water. Swirl the potatoes around. Drain and repeat. Spread the potatoes on a layer of paper towels and pat dry with additional paper towels.

Mix:
Combine the flour, garlic salt, and baking powder in a large ziplock bag. Pour the buttermilk in a bowl.

Fry:
In a large heavy pot or deep-fryer, preheat the peanut oil to 365 degrees F. Use a kitchen thermometer to verify the temperature. In small batches, approximately 2 cups each, dunk the potato slices in the buttermilk and then add to the ziplock bag. Carefully seal the bag and then shake with the flour mixture until coated. Add the coated potato slices to the hot oil. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes until crisp. Using a basket, remove from the fryer, shaking the basket to remove excess oil. Spread on paper towels. Allow the fries to stand for 1 minute before salting. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley. Serve with Barbecue Mayonnaise. Serves 6
