Ingredients

• 4 large Russet potatoes
• 4 cups Vegetable oil (for frying)
• 3 tablespoons Butter
• 0.333 cup Hot sauce
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Blue cheese crumbles
• 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley or green onions

Directions

Step 1

Peel the russet potatoes (if desired), and cut them into thin strips to form French fries that are approximately 1/4-inch thick.

Step 2

Place the cut potatoes in a large bowl of cold water and let them soak for 30 minutes to remove excess starch. Drain and pat them completely dry with paper towels.

Step 3

Heat the vegetable oil in a deep fryer or a large, heavy-bottomed pot to 325°F (165°C).

Step 4

Fry the potatoes in small batches for 3-4 minutes each, until they are lightly golden but not yet crisp. Remove them from the oil, transfer to a paper towel-lined tray, and let cool.

Step 5

Increase the oil temperature to 375°F (190°C). Fry the partially-cooked potatoes a second time in small batches for 2-3 minutes, or until they are crisp and golden brown. Transfer to a clean paper towel-lined tray and sprinkle with salt while hot.

Step 6

In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Stir in the hot sauce, garlic powder, paprika, and a pinch of salt, then remove from the heat to create the buffalo sauce.

Step 7

Place the crispy fries in a large mixing bowl. Pour the buffalo sauce over them and toss gently to coat.

Step 8

Transfer the sauced fries to a serving platter. Sprinkle the blue cheese crumbles over the top, followed by the chopped parsley or green onions for garnish.

Step 9

Serve immediately and enjoy your zesty Buffalo French Fries!
