How to Make Crispy French Fries in Your Dorm or Apartment
Everything is better fried, the perfect example being potatoes as french fries. That golden crisp exterior with a fluffy, meaty center and the perfect amount of salt makes french fries one of the best things to eat. Most college campuses, even if french fries are not being served in the dining hall, have restaurants or fast food chains that offer french fries every day, sometimes 24/7. While these places offer easy access to french fries, they can be full of preservatives and other nasty chemicals. Making crispy french fries in your dorm/apartment is healthier and can be a lot of fun.
If you are having friends over for dinner or just want a snack, french fries are easy and cheap to make. There are only three ingredients that you really need to make french fries: potatoes, oil and salt. It can also easily become a group activity with some cutting the potatoes and others frying them. This makes the process even faster and gets everyone involved. Enjoying yourself and achieving your goals has never tasted so good.
