You may do this much in advance and hold the potatoes as long as an hour before completing the dish. Heat about 1" oil in a wok or deep skillet to about 350or until a piece of potato sizzles when added to the oil. Add the potatoes.

Fry until golden brown on all sides, turning frequently. Remove from fat, drain and serve immediately.
