- 2 tbsp olive oil
- ¾ tsp kosher salt, plus more to taste
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- ¼ tsp smoked paprika (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Cut the potatoes lengthwise into 1/4-inch slabs, then cut each slab into 1/4-inch sticks. Place the cut fries in a large bowl, cover with cold water, and soak for 30 minutes.

Drain the fries and spread them on paper towels. Pat thoroughly dry — the drier the surface, the crisper the result.
