Ingredients
Method
1
Cut scrubbed unpeeled potatoes into ¼-inch thick sticks, similar to french fries, keeping skins intact for texture and appearance.
2
Pat the cut potatoes dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture, which ensures better crispiness when frying.
3
Combine flour, garlic salt, pepper, celery salt, and salt in a shallow bowl and mix thoroughly to distribute seasonings evenly.
4
Place beaten egg in another shallow bowl. Dip each potato stick into the egg, coating all sides lightly.
5 minutes
5
Roll the egg-coated potato sticks in the seasoned flour mixture, coating thoroughly on all sides, and shake off excess flour.
6
Heat vegetable oil in a large deep skillet or fryer to 375°F (190°C) for optimal frying.

Carefully add floured potato sticks to the hot oil in batches, avoiding overcrowding the pan to maintain oil temperature and allow even cooking.
