3. Take a pan and pour sufficient water for boiling.
4. Then put the potato pieces in the water and add salt. Boil till it is half done.

These worked quite well! I did not deep fry them but baked them and they turned out nice and crispy. Thank you for posting this... I will use this often.

These fries turned out okay and had some really nice crunchy skins. (I left just a bit of skin on the ends of each fry.) But they fell apart a little in the fryer and got a little grease-logged even though the oil was at the proper temperature. I may be trying this again, but if I do, next time, I probably won't boil them as much as I did this time.
