Steps:
- Peel and rinse the potatoes. Then cut them into sticks by cutting the potato in 4 or 5 vertical pieces, and then cutting each piece into sticks.
- Place them in a large bowl and cover with cold water. Allow them to soak, 2 to 3 hours. (You can also stick them in the fridge and let them soak overnight.)
- When you're ready to make the fries, drain off the water and lay the potatoes on 2 baking sheets lined with paper towels. Blot with paper towels to dry them.
- Heat a few inches of oil in a heavy pot to 300 degrees F. In 3 or 4 batches, cook the potatoes until soft, 4 to 5 minutes per batch. They should not be brown at this point! You just want to start the cooking process. Remove each batch and drain on new/dry paper towels.
- Once all the potatoes have been fried at 300 degrees F, turn up the heat until the oil reaches 400 degrees F. When the oil's hot, start frying the potatoes in batches again, cooking until the fries are golden and crisp. Remove the potatoes from the oil and drain on paper towels.
- Sprinkle with sea salt and dive in!

Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes. Russet potatoes are the best choice for pub fries because they are starchy and have a high solids content, which means they will hold their shape well when fried.
- Cut the potatoes into even-sized fries. This will ensure that they cook evenly.
- Soak the fries in cold water for at least 30 minutes. This will help to remove the starch from the potatoes, which will make them crispier.
- Dry the fries thoroughly before frying them. This will help to prevent them from sticking together.
- Fry the fries in hot oil. The ideal temperature for frying fries is between 325 and 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Fry the fries in batches. This will help to prevent them from overcrowding and sticking together.
- Cook the fries until they are golden brown and crispy. This will take about 3-4 minutes.
- Season the fries with salt and pepper. Other popular seasonings include garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and chili powder.
- Serve the fries immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
Conclusion:
Pub fries are a delicious and easy-to-make snack or side dish. By following these tips, you can make perfect pub fries at home. Whether you serve them with ketchup, malt vinegar, or your favorite dipping sauce, pub fries are sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
