Ingredients
- 6 large red potatoes, skins on
- Oil, for frying
- 1 large sweet onion
- Salt and pepper
Directions
Using a large pot, boil potatoes with skins on until almost done. Allow to cool, and cut potatoes into long strips, approximately 1/4 to 1/2-inch wide and thick. In a large pot or fryer, heat oil to 350 degrees. Par-fry the potatoes for 5 to 6 minutes. Potatoes should be limp. Remove potatoes and place onto paper towels and allow to drain. Let sit for 1 to 2 hours at room temperature.
Cut onions into 1/2-inch wedges. Just before serving time, place potatoes and onions into oil heated to 375 degrees F for 3 to 5 minutes, or until brown. Remove fries from oil, drain on paper towel, and while still hot, season with salt and pepper

Tried these and they are really good. Did not use as much time though.

Have not made these, yet. Wondering, is there a step in the process that one could stop at in order to freeze them so as to use in a shorter time in the future?

I'm a retired Chef and I keep potatoes like this on hand as a short cut.
Grated for hash browns, fritters, home fries, quick mashed potatoes.
It's a good time saver.Try keeping a few on hand.
