Paula Deens Batter Dipped French Fries Recipes

BATTER-DIPPED FRENCH FRIES

Steps:

• Heat a deep-fryer or a deep pot no more than half filled with oil to 325 degrees F.
• Peel and slice potatoes to size of your desire and fry them for 2 minutes - this isn't to make them crispy, it is just to blanch them. Drain and cool fries.
• Raise temperature of fryer or oil to 360 degrees F.
• Add salt and pepper to the flour and combine. Take fries and dip first into the evaporated milk, shaking off excess, and then into the flour mixture, shaking off excess. Fry for about 5 minutes, until browned.

BATTERED FRENCH FRIES

Steps:

• 1. Slice potatoes into french fries, and place into cold water so they won't turn brown while you prepare the oil.
• 2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. While the oil is heating, sift the flour, garlic salt, onion salt and paprika into a large bowl. Gradually stir in enough water so that the mixture can be drizzled from a spoon.
• 3. Dip potato slices into the batter one at a time, and place in the hot oil so they are not touching at first. The fries must be placed into the skillet one at a time, or they will clump together. Fry until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.
