Need help - Homemade French Fries

we use a deep fryer and fry in turkey oil

you have to let it heat up first to the right temp. then let 'em fry.

ours are always crispy and good

My fries always come out crispy!
After peeling them, let them soak in water with 1/2 cup salt for 15 minutes. Drain in a colander and shake the water off. Let sit for a few minutes and shake again. Bake at 400 for 45 minutes.
After 20 minutes, mix them a little... flip them around... continue cooking for 25 -30 minutes until golden brown... yummoooo

well i don´t use a deep frying pot i just use a frying pan like where you make meat or eggs, add some oil, not to much or they´ll get soft, just about to cover almost half way up of them, then add some salt to the oil and when its boiling start adding fries it´ll take about 10-20 min (depending on flame, quantity of fries, etc) an d they get crispy outside and soft inside, just make sure to drip them well so they dont get moisty with oil (you can use a papar towel underneath them) and as you take them out salt them again, thay get really tasty, or you can also use some seasoning to get that spicy taste.

Well I don't deep fry anything anymore, use oven fries myself, but I had heard that it is best to fry them a little first,not fully cook them, drain them and then deep fry them again a bit later, you are then assured of the perfect cripsy fry, well so I am told.

I deep fry them.
You can fry them in a pan of oil as well.
They just dont taste as good, unless they are fried.
