scrape off the skins. Cut them. Cook them in oil. The best really is Crisco. Which can be saved and use again and again.

So good.

Frozen versions can't compare. Trust me. Try the real thing.

I have often made french fries this way as a full meal. It's been a while, so I probably need to do it again.
