Cooking French fries at home in a frying pan + proper freezing of French fries
No less important stage than frying is the preliminary preparation of potatoes. If you approach this without due seriousness, the straw may lose its shape during the frying process, and nothing good will come of it.
The most common way to prepare French fries is to freeze them.
Let's see with you how it's done correctly.
First of all, thoroughly rinse the vegetables under running water. There should be no particles of earth left on it.
After this, remove the skin from it and wash it thoroughly again.
We cut the potatoes into beautiful strips - the kind usually made for French fries.
Place it in cold water for 15-20 minutes. This will allow us to wash out some of the starch from it. For greater effect, the water needs to be changed 2-3 times.
While the vegetables are soaking, pour water into the pan and bring it to a boil. We keep another pan of cold water nearby (it’s even better if it’s ice-cold—to do this, add ice cubes to it).
Drain the water from the potatoes and place them in a colander.
After a few minutes, throw the straw into boiling water and wait for it to boil again. After this, cook the preparations for 3 minutes. If there are a lot of them, it is better to load it in portions.
Next, place the vegetables in a colander again. And then almost immediately we throw it into cold water.
From cold water - again into a colander. Let all the liquid drain.
Place the pieces on a paper towel. Leave them for a few minutes.
And then lay it out on a cutting board in the same way. It is better to pre-wrap it with cling film so that the potatoes do not stick.
In this form, we send the resulting workpiece to the freezer. We keep her there for 2-3 hours.
We tear the potatoes off the board.
And put it in portions into bags.
Place it back in the freezer for storage.
When frying, it is not necessary to defrost the potatoes: you can immediately throw them into hot oil.
Now that we know how to properly freeze potatoes before frying, let's finally try to cook them. This is the option offered to us by the author of our first option in this collection.

Fry each portion for 3 to 6 minutes until crispy.
Before serving, add salt and favorite sauces to your taste. The dish is ready! Bon appetit.

- Salt to taste.
When choosing frozen French fries, consider the cut shape.
Nowadays, there are several types of cutting French fries. Of these, the most common are classic bars and wavy ones. Most chefs recommend giving preference to a wavy cut. After all, an uneven surface greatly facilitates the adhesion of salt and seasonings to the surface of the product. Plus, the uneven thickness of the potatoes helps the sauce and toppings hold together better.

French fries at home in a frying pan like at McDonald's
Today I want to share with you a not very healthy dish. There probably isn't a person who doesn't like fried potatoes. But regular, fried ones are somehow no longer interesting, but the popular fries, I want to try to cook them myself at home. My kids just love this not very healthy fast food. But we won’t get carried away and only occasionally treat ourselves to this snack.
One of the secrets to delicious and beautiful French fries like at McDonald's is cutting them correctly. The best way to do this is with a special grater with a fry attachment; it’s the same as for Korean carrots, only for potatoes.

Step 1. So, wash the potatoes, peel them and cut them into equal strips with a side of about 5-7 mm. Now you need to fill it with water in order to get rid of the starch. We will fill it not just with water, but with sugar and salt diluted in it.

How to cook French fries at home in a frying pan
Step 2. After this, when the potatoes have stood in the water and all the starch has been drawn out by the salt, they need to be wiped dry with paper towels or regular ones.
Step 3. But even now, when the potatoes seem to be ready for frying, we won’t do this! We have smoothly approached the second secret of proper French fries. Now the chopped and dried potatoes need to be frozen in the freezer.
Frozen potato fries
Have you noticed that when you buy French fries at McDonald's, they take them out of the refrigerator and fry them while frozen. The fact is that when we throw potatoes into hot oil, the top layer is the first to defrost and fry; it is the first to become a light crust, and inside the potatoes still remain soft and boiled, as they should be.
Step 4. Heat the vegetable oil in a deep frying pan. There should be a lot of it so that the potato pieces float there quietly. The oil temperature should be high, about 200 degrees Celsius. If you don’t have a thermometer, you can check by dipping one piece of potato into the oil and if it immediately starts to sizzle, then the temperature is right.
Drop the potatoes into the oil in small portions and fry for 5-7 minutes until tender. During this time the potatoes should become golden or even brownish in color.
Make sure that the potatoes do not stick together.
Step 5. Remove the fries, ready and golden brown, into a colander and let the excess oil drain. You can put it on paper towels, then the oil will be absorbed into them.
Be sure to sprinkle salt on top to taste, and if you like it spicier, you can sprinkle with ground pepper and fry another batch.
We serve the finished potatoes as an independent dish with sauce, for example for foam, or as a side dish for meat dishes. In any case, it is advisable to eat it immediately, otherwise it will lose its signature crust.
In this way, you can freeze the potatoes in advance, and then, if necessary, take out and fry as many as you or your guests need.
Food with a special flavor
Indeed, now you can only find a real Russian oven in the outback, where people of old school continue to honor customs, love and respect the original Russian cuisine. And how many stunning dishes can be cooked in such a stove! Crumbly boiled potatoes in a pot, pancakes with various fillings, ruddy pies, rich porridge with butter, sour cabbage soup, country Varenets and much more. The secret of the special taste and breathtaking aroma is that food cooked in the oven, unlike food on electric stove, does not boil, but simmers, slowly revealing the notes of each individual ingredient. You'll have to be patient, because... This is a slow process, but it is worth it. As a result of this sacrament, food acquires a special concentration.

Right choice
Frozen imported potatoes have several quality categories: Premium-grade (AA), A-grade and B-grade . AA is the maximum possible length of the straw, the minimum presence of defects, and low weight loss during cooking (“shrinking”).
Category A straws are inferior in quality to the previous ones. It is shorter, may contain a little more defects and cooks a little more.
And finally, products of quality B. Such potatoes will require more oil during the cooking process and, on average, lose 10% more weight than products of quality A, that is, they have a greater degree of shrinkage.
-fried French fries should crinkle gently after cooking and retain heat, flavor and aroma for a long time. Its internal texture is uniform and crumbly. High-quality French fries do not develop cavities, which can cause the finished product to lose its shape.
Homemade crispy fries
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place all the potatoes in one layer so that they do not touch each other. If there are a lot of potatoes, you may need two baking sheets, but then bake them separately.
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees and bake for 20 minutes until golden brown.
Well, that’s all, the fries are ready and can be consumed immediately, you don’t even need time to remove excess oil, because we practically didn’t use it. The taste is in no way inferior to if we were deep-frying it. It is also crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.

Let's look at another simple recipe. I think that nowadays there is a microwave in every home, because it is a very good assistant in the home.

Preparing Potatoes
How to make French fries at home? Before you start frying a vegetable, you need to thoroughly prepare it for the process. And the sequence of actions does not depend on the chosen cooking method. Potatoes should be sorted and sorted so that the tubers are approximately the same size. Selected vegetables must be thoroughly washed and peeled. After this, the potatoes are cut into long pieces no more than one centimeter thick - excessively thick pieces may not be fried. Please note that sliced vegetables too thin will be dry. The shredded product is placed in a container with cold, slightly salted water to avoid darkening. Immediately before frying, the water is drained and the prepared potatoes are dried with a clean cloth towel or napkins.
French fries in a pan with oil
All children love this not very healthy fast food. Arriving at any children's establishment, the first thing children ask is to buy French fries. We all, not just children, don’t mind enjoying this simple, but at the same time delicious dish. Why not cook this yummy dish at home so that everyone is full and happy. So I want to share this recipe with you.
Ingredients
The main thing is to maintain the same size of strips when cutting potatoes. This is important when frying, so that all the potatoes are baked evenly, and it doesn’t turn out that one is crunchy and the other is still raw.
We wash all the chopped potatoes to remove excess starch under running cold water using a colander. It is very important to do this!
Pour the entire liter of vegetable oil into the pan and heat it to the maximum. And now many people are interested in the question:...
How long does it take to fry French fries in oil in a pan?
While the oil is heating, the heat under the pan is always at maximum, but when we add the potatoes, we reduce the heat to medium. Drop the potatoes into the oil in small portions. Just look how it starts to hiss...
On average, this time ranges from 5 to 7 minutes. I advise you to navigate on the spot, since if your oil is not warmed up enough, this time may increase. This time also depends on the size of the potatoes. After about 4 minutes, I advise you to take out the straw and look at its appearance. It should be golden brown and crispy. If so, then it's time to take it out.
To remove excess oil, soak the potatoes with paper towels. All that remains is to add salt and mix.
Option from a ready-made semi-finished product
For better preservation, semi-finished potato products are treated with a small amount of special preservatives before freezing. To reduce the harm of French fries purchased as a ready-made semi-finished product, it is necessary to defrost and process them correctly.
Frozen French fries cannot be fried immediately. The defrosting process can be done in two ways: in warm water (recommendations described above) or in a microwave oven.
Frying ingredients:
- package of finished semi-finished product;
- sea salt to taste;
- 2-3 tbsp. olive oil;
- mixture of peppers to taste.
- Place the semi-finished product to defrost in a convenient way.
- Set the oven to preheat at medium power;
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper without greasing anything.
- Scatter the potato slices on a baking sheet so that they do not touch each other.
- Drizzle them with oil, sprinkle with spices and salt.
- Place in the oven for 5-7 minutes.
- After this time, take out the baking sheet and shake it or mix the slices. Repeat this action every 5-7 minutes 3-4 times.
- Total cooking time is 20-30 minutes.
The dish is considered ready when a crispy crust is formed and the straw inside becomes soft.

In my kitchen I have my favorite assistant - a multicooker and I very often resort to its help. Any dish can be easily and simply prepared in this miracle pan. And French fries are no exception. Let's prepare it today. Moreover, we don’t need much for this, potatoes, butter and a slow cooker. Be sure to repeat.
Ingredients
- Potatoes - 500 grams
- Vegetable oil
- Salt
It is best if the potatoes are oblong in shape, so the fries will be as similar as possible to potatoes from McDonald's or KFS.
Cut all the potatoes into strips, rinse them under water and dry them with towels.
Pour at least 2 cm thick oil into the multicooker bowl. Set the multi-cook or fry mode and set the temperature to 175 degrees. We wait until the oil gets hot.
While the oil is heating up, prepare a slotted spoon and a colander.
I heated the oil for about 5 minutes and now add potato strips in small portions.

Fry for 5 minutes until golden brown and remove with a slotted spoon to a colander to allow excess oil to drain.
Sprinkle the finished potatoes with salt to taste and fry the next batch.
