For an extra layer of flavor, consider using peanut oil for frying. It imparts a subtle nutty taste that complements the potatoes beautifully. Ensure the potatoes are thoroughly dry before frying to prevent splattering and achieve the desired crispness. Don't overcrowd the fryer; work in batches to maintain the oil temperature and ensure even cooking.
