Homemade French Chips with Five Dipping Sauces

Ingredients for Homemade French Chips with Five Dipping Sauces

• 1.4kg russet (baking) potatoes (5 or 6)

• 950 to 1450ml vegetable oil for deep-frying

• ملح

• Accompaniments:

• soured cream and Onion Dip , Saffron Mayonnaise , Ginger-Sesame Sauce , Roasted Red Pepper-Walnut Dip , and/or Chipotle-Tomatillo Sauce

• A 5- to 6-quart pot

• a deep-fat thermometer

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 149°C.

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 149°C as possible and return oil to 149°C 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 191°C. Fry potatoes again in four batches, stirring, and adjusting heat to keep oil as close to 191°C as possible, until deep golden, 3 to 4 minutes. (Return oil to 191°C between batches.) Transfer with slotted spoon to dry towels to drain briefly, then season with salt and serve immediately, with sauce(s) for dipping.
