Ingredients list
- 3 pieces Russet or Yukon Gold potatoes
- 2 cups neutral oil vegetable or canola
- 1 teaspoon salt to taste
- ½ teaspoon pepper to taste
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 cup tapioca pearls fried
- 1 cup scallions chopped, for topping
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Start by washing and peeling the potatoes. Cut them into even 1/4-inch thick sticks. Soak in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.
- Drain the water and pat the potato fries dry with a clean kitchen towel. Ensure they are completely dry before cooking.
- Heat oil in a deep fryer or large pot. Fry the potatoes in batches until golden and crispy, about 5 to 7 minutes per batch. Drain on paper towels.
- Season the fries immediately with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika while hot.
- Boil tapioca pearls in a large pot of water until they float, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water. Toss with a touch of your favorite sweetener if desired.
- In a serving dish, layer the crispy fries, followed by a generous heap of cooked tapioca pearls. Sprinkle chopped scallions on top for garnish.
