Deep Fried French Fries

I had wanted a fry cutter for years. Tim bought me one for Christmas 2018. We finally tried it out. We don’t eat fries much around here. We do like potatoes but fries aren’t our favorite.
Some people love fries though. Minimal ingredients, cheap, and cook up fast.
Anyone else make homemade fries at home? Or does most just buy frozen?
Do you prefer to peel the potatoes. We like skins on. I also prefer to make them with red skin potatoes. But Russets are good too.
In this recipe, my potatoes were small which results in smaller fries.
Clean potatoes, peel if you want
Cut with knife or use a fry cutter
Pat dry, removing all excess water on potatoes

I like to use a heavy set cast iron pan. If you have deep fryer. Deep fry as per instructions. Deep fry in pan, oil should be 300-330F. We’re going to deep fry each batch twice! I deep fry all batches, for about 6-7minutes each and put them on paper towel. Just til potatoes are starting to soften and blister.
Then turn the oil up til you reach 400F, deep fry each batch for 4-6 minutes til fries are crisp and golden.
