CHEF JOHN'S FRENCH FRIES
I don't think most people realize that any decent French fry needs to be twice fried. The first frying in done at a lower temperature, which softens the potato and prepares the starchy surface for the second frying's crispification.

Steps:
- Leaving the skin on, cut the potatoes into long thin strips and put in a large bowl of clean water to remove some starch, prevent them from sticking together, and stop the oxidizing process.
- In a cast iron skillet fitted with a thermometer, or a small fryer, heat the oil until it reaches 275 to 300 degrees F. Remove the potatoes from the water and pat dry. Working in small batches, fry the potatoes until they go from shiny to matte, 3 to 5 minutes (this is also called blanching). Drain well on paper towels. Re-heat the oil until it reaches 350 degrees F and fry the potatoes again, also in small batches, until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside but soft and chewy on the inside.
- Remove from the oil, drain well, and toss with sea salt and malt vinegar, or any other seasoning you prefer. You can also fry fresh herbs such as rosemary, sage, and thyme with the potatoes. Serve hot.
JANETTE'S OVEN-BAKED FRENCH FRIES WITH HOMEMADE KETCHUP
Steps:
- To make the fries: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Peel the potatoes and cut into desired French-fry size. Place in a plastic bag along with the oil and shake until potatoes are evenly coated. Coat a baking sheet with nonstick spray. Put the potatoes on the baking sheet in a single layer and sprinkle with cayenne and black pepper.
- Bake, turning potatoes once, until golden brown, about 20 to 25 minutes.
- Meanwhile, to make the ketchup: Stir all ingredients together in a small bowl and set aside. If you like it chunky serve as is. If you don't want the ketchup chunky, put ingredients into a food processor to puree.
- When the fries are done, sprinkle with salt and serve immediately with the ketchup.

BEST BAKED FRENCH FRIES
The healthiest way to make fries is to bake them. It saves money and you can't beat the taste. I have been playing around with different ways to bake fries for some time now, and I feel this is the best recipe thus far. Baking time may vary depending on how thick you cut the fries. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Peel potatoes, then cut lengthwise into 1/3-inch-thick sticks, submerging in a large bowl of ice water. Rinse potatoes in several changes of cold water in bowl (more ice isn't necessary) until water is clear. Drain in a large colander.
- Spread potatoes out in a single layer on several layers of kitchen towels to drain, then pat dry.
- While potatoes are being rinsed and dried, heat 2 inches oil slowly in a 5- to 6-quart pot over medium-low heat until thermometer registers 300°F.
- When oil is ready, increase heat to high and fry potatoes in four batches, stirring occasionally, until just cooked through but still white, about 3 minutes. (Adjust heat to keep oil as close to 300°F as possible and return oil to 300°F between batches.) Transfer fried potatoes with a slotted spoon to a baking sheet lined with dry towels to drain. When all potatoes are fried once, cool potatoes to room temperature, about 30 minutes.
- Reheat oil over medium-high heat until thermometer registers 375°F. Fry potatoes again in four batches, stirring, and adjusting heat to keep oil as close to 375°F as possible, until deep golden, 3 to 4 minutes. (Return oil to 375°F between batches.) Transfer with slotted spoon to dry towels to drain briefly, then season with salt and serve immediately, with sauce(s) for dipping.

- For the ketchup, add all ingredients to a medium size pot and mix well. Bring to a slow simmer, place a lid on the pot, and cook for 30 minutes. Stir the ketchup every 5 minutes and give it a taste after 15 minutes. You may want more monk fruit to make it sweeter, or more vinegar, but trust me, the balance of flavors should be right. After 30 minutes, remove the lid and let cook another 15 minutes. The texture should be slightly looser than ketchup and will thicken after it cools. Carefully blend the ketchup using a hand blender or blender, this will whip some air into it and make the ketchup smooth.
- While the ketchup is cooking, preheat oven to 400F convection or 425F bake. Peel & slice the potatoes into medium thick fries. Take a look at the video to see how I did it. Cover the fries with cold water and use your hands to rinse the starch out. Do this 2 times, the more starch that releases the crispier the fries will be.
- Dry the fries using a towel and toss in a large bowl along with 2 tablespoons of avocado oil and 1.5 teaspoons of salt. Mix well and transfer to a baking sheet in one even layer. Bake for 20 minutes then flip the fries. Cook another 15-20 minutes until the fries are deep golden brown.
- Serve the fries with the ketchup and enjoy! Transfer leftover ketchup to an airtight container, allow to cool, and store in the fridge for 3 weeks, or freeze for 6 months. Enjoy!
