Restaurant Style French Fries

(Original recipe makes 3 servings)

 Ingredients:

4 big russet potatoes, peeled and slice to big, thick fries
Salt and pepper to taste
2- 3 cups water, or as needed
Vegetable oil for frying
Paprika to garnish
Fresh parsley to garnish, finely chopped
Parmesan cheese to garnish

Directions:

Pour 2-3 cups of water in a big pot and place it over a high heat. Add salt and pepper to the water just to taste. When water comes to a boil, drop a small batch of fries in the boiling water. Boil the fries between one to one and half minutes. Remove the fries from the pot and place them into a strainer. Add the second batch of fries to the remaining boiling water. Repeat this process until there are no more fries.
Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil gets to its highest point, add some boiled fries and fry them for about 7-8 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. When they are done, remove from the oil and drain on paper towels.
Garnish with paprika, parsley, and parmesan cheese and serve.
