Plunge the fries into a bowl of cold water.
Leave them like this for 20 minutes to eliminate excess starch.
Then take them out and dry them with a clean cloth.
Next, pour a generous layer of oil into the pan.
Heat up and add the potato sticks.
Leave them like this for about 5 minutes, until they are golden brown.
Feel free to add a few cloves of garlic.
This will make them even tastier! Remove them from the pan, place them on paper towels, and let them cool slowly
before returning them to the very hot oil. A few minutes is all it takes.
Look at them and you’ll already notice the well-balanced gilding.
(Be careful not to let them burn!) Once cooked, remove them

Why vinegar on fries?
How to get crispy fries without using a deep fryer? It is then important to choose quality ingredients.
The best fried potatoes are those that ripen later, like apples. It’s important that they contain little water, starch, and sugar. Otherwise, they tend to brown and caramelize quickly. Furthermore, excess starch makes them mushy because they absorb too much oil. A solution to this problem? A secret ingredient: vinegar. Its acidity slows down the breakdown of pectin, preserving it during cooking. Pectin is a soluble fiber that contributes to satiety, regulates fat absorption during digestion, and maintains healthy bowel movements.
