Perfectly Simple French Fries

"I found this recipe in the newspaper. These fries are very easy to make. They come out nice and crispy, and the slow cooking makes them absorb only about a tablespoon of oil per serving. I think the peanut oil is important, so I wouldn't use anything else."

  1. These fries were pretty good. I found that I needed to crank up the heat more at the end in order to get them crispier. Thanks for sharing your recipe.
