Method
Peel the potatoes and cut them into sticks 0.7–1 cm thick.
Soak the sticks in cold water for 20–30 minutes, then pat them dry with a towel.
Heat the oil in a deep pot to 160 °C and fry the potatoes in batches for about 5 minutes: they should become soft but barely change color.
Remove the sticks with a slotted spoon and let them cool on a rack or paper towels for at least 30 minutes.
Heat the oil to 180–190 °C and fry the potatoes a second time for about 5 minutes, until golden brown.
Drain on a paper towel, salt right away and serve hot.
