Salut guys and welcome to french guy cooking. This is what we're gonna cook today. Gorgeous French fries I
Have to face it french cooking is a bit complex what I guess by complex. You mean sophisticated
No, I mean complicated and confusing not easy to understand
but that was before because today I
Decided to do some french cooking with only one ingredient and not every ingredient not a pushy one potato
Potato so here comes the most delicious French fries you have ever tasted
Let's make it Start of the recipe cut potatoes into Batons deep fry them
end of the recipe
that is so simple
I wonder why I always get fatty and soggy chips
Instead of light crispy and fluffy potato batons well there might be some explanation for that
Let's find out first choose the right potato
Indeed you have to pick the right variety of potato: Maris Piper
sebago, Russet and of course in France
BINTJE peel the potatoes and keep them in a water bowl to prevent them from turning boun the size also matters  ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
this is
Embarrassing you want a decent size so that you're able to cut nice
Buttons out of it which lead us to the legitimate question what are the proper measurements of a french fry in order to be?
crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside
The chip has to be thick and to understand it
Let's have a look at the boring graph if the chip is too thin you might end up with only crust
but if it's too thick
It might be tricky to cook it through
Trust me one centimetre or a third of an inch would be perfect
Cut the potatoes as mentioned
Rinse well to prevent them from sticking to each other let them dry and set aside
Before we go any further let me talk about cooking secret, because yes, there is one secret
We will deep fry the parade of battles not once but twice and maybe those cooking freaks know it already
but we
Normal people don't the first one at medium temperature will cook them through the second at a very high temperature
Will form a crispy crust warning you wreckless freak. We're about to deep-fry and guess what it is dangerous for
example if you use wet ingredients or if you drop them from high oil will splash all over the place
Which is a pain, but oil could also splash on your body. Which is a real pain at that point?
We say in France cela béa
It is quite unfortunate
So please be careful always cook small batches at a time and never fill the container more than a half with oil
[oh] and get one of these
if you have a deep fryer of course
Please use it. It's much easier. This way otherwise place a safe amount of oil in a dutch oven or in a heavy bottomed pan
heat [the] oil to 130 Celsius or
266 Fahrenheit if you don't have a kitchen thermometer
And it's likely the case because you know that's the crisis and all and it's boring and it takes place
And you don't have so much space and [ok] you [get] it?
This is what it should [look] like when you drop one chip in the oil you see that gentle boil, not dead
But not a frenzy either
Gently place a small amount in the oil the first frying will be over when you can break them apart easily
It's about 7 to [10] [minutes]. They should not turn any brown drain and place them on a cooling rack
[just] let them completely cool down
second fry bring the oil to 180 Celsius again here's what it should [look] like when you drop a chip in it a
dangerous looking boil for a reason
Carefully place a small amount of them in the oil [I] like my french fries golden brown so [in] my case
It's about four minutes
But feel free to remove them when the color suits you drain them and place them on a kitchen paper to remove any excessive oil
Immediately add some salt let them cool down if you can and that my friend is a proper french fry
Crispy Light fluffy who would have thought that the one ingredient recipe would be dead scrumptious hMM
To go with this lovely french fries. I would recommend a source data
Which is basically a [mayo] sauce
But with some shallots and some herbs finely chopped mmM add some chili to it to give it more kick
You know what I have to [be] honest with you guys french fries are not coming from Falls
[they] are coming from belgium my life is in danger [which] means that we should [call] them Belgian fries
Mmm. I mean it's true, but the belgian they speak French, so I guess it's their fault to leave that aside
Let's call them simply French Fries. I
