Step 1

Preheat your fry oil to 250-275 degrees F. Cut potatoes into large wedges. You should get 8-10 wedges per potato.

Step 2

Add wedges to boiling water and boil for five minutes. Drain wedges and spread them out so they don’t stick together.

Step 3

Fry wedges in batches at the low temperature for 7 minutes. Drain and repeat with all your wedges.

Step 4

Turn oil temperature up to 350-360 degrees F.

Step 5

When ready to serve, re-fry wedges at the higher temperature for 6-7 minutes until the potatoes are golden brown.

Step 6

When wedges come out of the second fry, immediately season them with salt and pepper. Serve with ketchup… or not.
