Some tips to consider when making this recipe:

• Leaving the potato strips in cold water allows water to wash off all the excess starch making the fries crispier. Also, double frying the potatoes gives a much crispier outcome.
• The temperature of the oil is an important factor that needs to be controlled for the best French fries.
• When frying the potato strips, make sure the pan is not overcrowded. Fry them in batches if necessary.
• Baking the fries instead of deep frying them will give you a healthier alternative. However, they won’t be crispy.
• You can substitute beef sausages for pork, chicken sausages, or hotdogs.

To make the best French fries

• Leave the potato strips in a bowl filled with cold water for at least an hour. It is preferred to leave it overnight.
• Wash the potato strips twice with cold water. With paper towels, dry each strip well. Into a hot boiling oil at 325 degrees, put your dried strips to fry. Leave the potato strips for 3 minutes or until they are soft, then take them off the oil into paper towels to draw off the extra oil.
• Return the fries back in the hot oil after raising their temperature to 400 degrees. Fry them for 3-5 minutes until they are crispy and golden brown.
• Take them off the oil onto some paper towels. Sprinkle some salt while they are still hot.

Beef sausages

• Start preparing your sausages by cutting them into bite-sized pieces.
• Transfer the sausage pieces to a hot pan on medium heat.
• Leave them to cook for 10-15 minutes while occasionally flipping each piece to make sure it’s cooked from all sides.

Assembling the dish

• Mix in the French fries with the cooked sausages in the pan.
• Serve the dish with the sauces on the side. Enjoy!
