Ingredients
Scale
- 4 medium Yukon Gold or Russet potatoes
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt (plus more for finishing)
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Vegetable oil, for frying
- 1/4 cup ketchup (for serving)
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise (for serving)
Instructions
- Wash and scrub the potatoes. Slice into 1/4-inch thick round coins—uniform thickness ensures even frying.
- Soak the sliced potatoes in cold water for 20 minutes to remove excess starch. Drain and pat dry thoroughly with a clean towel.
- Heat oil in a deep frying pan or pot to 350°F (175°C).
- Carefully drop the potato slices in batches and fry for 3–5 minutes or until golden and crispy. Avoid overcrowding.
- Use a slotted spoon to remove the coins and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
- While hot, sprinkle with rosemary, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Serve warm in a paper tray or on a platter, with generous swirls of ketchup and mayonnaise on the side.
Notes
- Yukon Gold potatoes provide a creamy interior while remaining crisp on the outside.
- Soaking the potatoes helps achieve maximum crispiness.
- Serve immediately for best texture.
- Feel free to use fresh herbs for an extra burst of flavor.
