Greatest Chips (french Fries) On Earth

Total Time: 1 hr 25 mins Preparation Time: 15 mins Cook Time: 1 hr 10 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 6
• 1 kg potato
• oil (for deep frying)

Recipe

• 1 fill a saucepan with plenty of water and bring up the water temperature to 62c (145f).
• 2 i found on my electric stove top that medium was a good temperature to start with and as it approached dropping back to low held it there.
• 3 peel potato and cut into chips (french fries). i think around 12mm (1/2") across is a good size, the recipe wouldn't be well suited to thin ones.
• 4 pre-cook in water at 62°c (145°f) for 30 minutes, drain well and allow to cool to room temperature (takes around 15 minutes).
• 5 deep-fry in warm oil at 130°c (265°f) for 5 minutes, drain and allow to cool to room temperature (takes around 15 minutes).
• 6 deep-fry in hot oil at 190°c (375°f) until golden and done to your liking, around 5 minutes. if doing a lot of chips either cook in small batches or crank up the burner if using a wok when adding so the temperature of the oil doesn't drop too much.
