Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 large russet (baking) potatoes (1 1/2 lb total)
About 6 cups vegetable oil
Special Equipment
a food processor fitted with fine (2-mm) julienne disk or a mandoline fitted with julienne cutter; a deep-fat thermometer

Steps:

  • Peel potatoes and cut lengthwise into 1/8-inch-thick julienne in processor or with mandoline. Transfer as cut to a bowl of ice and cold water and let chill in water at least 30 minutes.
  • Heat 1 1/4 inches oil in a 6- to 7-quart heavy pot over moderately high heat until thermometer registers 375°F.
  • While oil heats, drain potatoes and pat completely dry between several layers of paper towels. Fry potatoes in 6 batches, gently stirring once or twice with a slotted spoon or skimmer, until golden and crisp, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes per batch. Transfer potatoes with slotted spoon to paper towels to drain and season with salt. (Return oil to 375°F between batches.)

I'm not a fan of crispy potatoes. I prefer them to be soft and fluffy.

I'm not sure how I feel about the lemon-herb sauce. I'm not a huge fan of lemon.

These matchstick potatoes were a hit at my last dinner party! They were so crispy and flavorful. I loved the tangy flavor of the lemon-herb sauce.
