Step 1 of 3 · Poutine

Prepare the Fries

Soak cut potatoes in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch. Drain and pat completely dry. Fry in oil at 325°F (160°C) until soft, then increase heat to 375°F (190°C) and fry again until golden and crispy.

Double-frying is essential for the perfect texture.
