Ingredients (6)

For safe meat preparation, reference the USDA website.

Steps (5)

  1. 1

    Cut potatoes into ¼–½-inch sticks. Place in a large bowl and cover with cold water. Allow them to soak for at least two hours, up to overnight.

  2. 2

    While the potatoes are soaking, make the dip. Combine the sour cream, mayonnaise and buttermilk seasoning and mix well to combine. Set aside in the refrigerator until ready to use.

  3. 3

    Drain and arrange the potatoes on two baking sheets lined with paper towels and blot to dry thoroughly.

  4. 4

    Heat a few inches of oil in a heavy pot to 300°F. In 3 or 4 batches, cook the potatoes until soft, 4 to 5 minutes per batch. Remove each batch and drain on dry paper towels.

  5. 5

    Raise the temperature so the oil reaches 400°F. Fry the potatoes in batches again, until the potatoes are crisp and golden brown. Drain and season with sea salt. Serve with the Ranch Buttermilk dip.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from crispy Fries I have had these before and they are so good, the crispy fries hit the spot after they are dipped in ranch.I always wish I had made more than I do, but I wouldn't be able to finish the rest of my meal if I did

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Buttermilk ranch sauce I made this as a side with my burgers for the fries to be dipped in. I also put it on my burger. It has great flavor and super creamy.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Grandkids Favorite! I made these for the family, but baked the fries instead of deep frying. I tossed the potatoes in a ziploc bag with canola oil , sprinkled with Ranch and baked. The kids loved to dip the ranch fries in the ranch dip!

Rated 4 out of 5 by from It was Just Me The biggest problem I had making this was cutting the potatoes to the right size and shape. Before I make it again, I am definitely getting myself a french-fry potato cutter. The taste was good, but because of my own personally inconsistent cutting, the fry times were widely variant. I will try again, because when the pieces were well-shaped, the result was very good.
