Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 cup Milk
- 2 large Eggs
- 4 cups Vegetable oil
Instructions
Wash the russet potatoes thoroughly, then slice them into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Pat dry with paper towels.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, dried oregano, salt, and ground black pepper. Mix well to create the dredging mixture.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk and eggs until fully combined to create the wet batter.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep fryer or a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat to a temperature of 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to monitor the temperature and ensure consistent frying.
Dip each potato slice into the wet batter, allowing any excess to drip off, then coat it evenly with the seasoned flour mixture.
Carefully place the battered potato slices into the hot oil without overcrowding the fryer. Fry them in batches to maintain the oil's temperature.
Cook the potatoes for 4-5 minutes per batch, or until they turn golden brown and crispy. Remove them from the oil and let them drain on a plate lined with paper towels.
Repeat the process with the remaining potato slices until all are fried.
Serve the mojos hot with your favorite dipping sauces, such as ranch dressing or chili sauce. Enjoy!
