From a YouTube video Watch the original

Ingredients

• Russet potatoes
• Refined peanut oil
• Corn syrup
• Salt
• Beef tallow (optional)
• Beef bouillon (as an alternative seasoning)

Instructions

1. Slice russet potatoes into thin planks about an eighth of an inch thick.
2. Soak the sliced potatoes in a mixture of water and corn syrup for 30 minutes to remove excess starch.
3. Dry the potatoes completely and fry them in refined peanut oil at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for about 90 seconds until light golden brown. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
4. Chill the partially fried potatoes in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes.
5. Fry the potatoes a second time at 400 degrees Fahrenheit in small batches for 5-6 minutes until perfectly golden brown.
6. Season the fries with salt. If using beef tallow, season with salt directly. If not using beef tallow, mix beef bouillon with salt for seasoning.
7. Enjoy your homemade crispy French fries!
