Cooking Time: 20 minutesPreperation Time: 1 hour

Preparing the Potatoes

1. Wash and peel the potatoes. Slice them into sticks of uniform thickness to ensure even cooking. 2. Soak the sliced potatoes in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch, which helps in achieving a crispy texture upon frying. 3. Drain the potatoes and pat them dry thoroughly with a clean towel or paper towels.

Frying the Potatoes

1. Heat the vegetable oil in a deep fryer or a large, heavy-bottomed pan until it reaches 175°C (350°F). 2. Fry the potatoes in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pan, until they are golden and crispy, about 5-7 minutes per batch. 3. Drain the fried potatoes on paper towels to remove excess oil and season them with salt while they're still hot.

Preparing the Aioli

1. In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise, minced garlic, lemon juice, finely chopped parsley (or other herbs), and black pepper to taste. 2. Stir until all the ingredients are well combined.

Serving

Serve the hot, crispy French fries with a generous dollop of aioli on the side for dipping.
