Home made fries?

Home made fries?
I have been doing a bunch of fishing lately and have been using my turkey fryer to make fries with the oil after making fish. They are ok but not the best. I have been using peanut oil and keeping the temp at 350*. The normally are kind of burnt looking and could be better. What are those of you doing to make them?

Going to have to try that out!
I actually use a lawry's black pepper seasoning salt in my saltine "bread crumbs" for my fish. Works great with some Italian seasonings mixed in. Lets just say that tartar sauce is really not needed! So from what I'm getting from this is the type of tater I'm using is the issue.

try frying the fries 2 times. cook 5-6 min the first time to cook them, set them out on a paper towel for a few minutes(5-7 min) then fry them again to give them the crisp texture

Thats actually good advise. A few weeks ago I read the same thing somewhere else while looking for a fish n chips recipe. They said to do just like you said but make your fish in the rest period. When the fish are ready put them in the oven on low on a wire rack to keep them warm and then finish your fries. I did try it once but the fries were not the way I wanted them. I think on this Sundays fish fry I will br trying a different type of tater to see how it works out. Well providing I go catching on Saturday instead of fishing!
