1 cup vegetable oil for frying
•
1 cup all-purpose flour
•
1 teaspoon garlic salt
•
1 teaspoon onion salt
•
1 teaspoon paprika
•
1 teaspoon salt
•
1/2 cup water, or as needed
Directions
1
Slice potatoes into French fries; place into a large bowl of cold water to prevent them from turning brown.
2
Heat oil in a heavy saucepan or large skillet to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
3
While the oil is heating, sift flour, garlic salt, onion salt, paprika, and salt into a large bowl. Gradually stir in enough water to make a slightly thick batter that can be drizzled from a spoon.
4
Drain fries and pat dry; dip into batter one at a time.
5
Lower fries carefully into the hot oil in batches to prevent them from clumping together; fry until golden brown and crispy on all sides, 7 to 10 minutes.
6
Drain fries on a paper towel-lined plate.

Serve hot and enjoy!
