How to Make French Fries – German Recipe

If you ever wanted to know How to Make French Fries, here’s a German Recipe. The commercial French fries that you can buy in the supermarket have mainly additional ingredients and vegetable oils that are quite unhealthy. Making them from scratch you decide what oil and potatoes to use. It’s been said that using beef tallow is a great alternative to seed oils. The recipe is pre-cooking the potatoes in a mix of water and vinegar. Adding vinegar makes them crunchy. Happy Cooking!

Ingredients French Fries

2 kg potatoes, such as Gold potatoes
4 tbsp vinegar
salt, paprika powder, or the EDORA French Fries SEASONING 
oil for frying

Cooking Instructions French Fries

– Peel potatoes and cut into sticks of 0,5 – 1 cm thickness.
– Place the sticks into a pot with water and the vinegar.
– Bring to a boil.
– Let boil for 5 min.

– Rinse the sticks under running cold water and drain in a sieve.
– Place a kitchen cloth on a baking tray, spread sticks on top.
– With another kitchen cloth pat them carefully. Let them cool off completely.

– If you are using a deep fryer heat temperature to 150 C or 300 F.
– Alternatively use a deep pan and a slotted spoon to remove them. If you have a deep fry sieve, that’s handy.
– Deep fry smaller portions for 4 min. Remove from oil and place on kitchen paper to drain.
– Increase temperature to 350 F (180 C) and fry them again for 8 min.

– Place Pommes in a bowl and spice to taste.
