Shoestring Potatoes



Homemade French fries are just better than store bought..well I think so, anyway.  These thin shoe-string potatoes are great and kids love them.

Shoestring Potatoes

2 Medium to Large Russet Potatoes (depending on how many you are feeding)
2 - 3 Tbsp. Seasoned Salt
3 cups Canola Oil

Peel potatoes and cut into long thin slices. Lay out on a paper  towel to dry

In a deep narrow pan, add 3 cups of Canola Oil.  Bring to about 375 degrees.  You can tell if it is ready if you drop 1 drop of water into the pan and it sizzles.

Drop the potatoes into the pot about a handful at a time so they are not overcrowded.  Move around so both sides get cooked.  Deep fry about 3 or 4 minutes or until they start to brown.  Remove to a  paper towel and sprinkle with Seasoned Salt.  Toss around so that they are well coated.

Serve with this dipping sauce:

2 Tbsp. catsup
1 cup Miracle Whip
1 dash hot sauce

Mix together

Enjoy!
