When serving fried potatoes, you always want the dish to be as close to ideal as possible. However, not every experienced housewife can achieve such a lofty goal. The root vegetable can fall apart, turn out to be tasteless, or even stick to the pan.
Details
In order to avoid such problems, it is worth knowing the cooking secrets thanks to which restaurants always serve impeccable fried potatoes.
What are the main tricks?
Correct cutting
Large pieces of root vegetables will not have time to fry evenly, so it is better to choose a form that is used in fast food restaurants for cooking French fries.
This trick ensures that the potatoes are crispy on the outside and perfectly soft on the inside. It's also worth remembering that all the potatoes should be about the same size.
Lack of oil savings
Many housewives try to make fried potatoes less harmful by reducing the amount of vegetable oil. However, this dish does not belong to healthy eating, so it is better to follow the established culinary rules.
Remember that fried potatoes are fried in a lot of oil. Some people cook them in boiling oil to get the perfect taste.
Portion
If you plan to fry potatoes for the whole family at once, you can forget about the perfect result. In order for the dish to turn out flawless, the chopped root vegetable must be placed in a frying pan in a single layer.
Therefore, cook fried potatoes in batches.
Salt and spices
It is known that salt does not have the best effect on the consistency of root vegetables - potatoes can fall apart during heat treatment.
Therefore, cooks salt the dish when it is already on the plate.
It is better to add seasonings at the final stage to make the dish tasty.
