Double fried

 
I seem to have a lot of potatoes right now, so last night I made the ultimate girlie food: fries.  Now fries isn't as simple as peeling and cutting up potatoes then dumping them into hot grease.  Fries have to be crunchy outside, mash potato inside.  I usually get that effect when I cook the potatoes with my ramen broth, let it cool then coat the fries with cornstarch before putting them in the grease.  Last night I tried double frying them.  Boy that's tedious, especially when I'm craving fries.  It had a fair effect.  It needed the cornstarch, but I don't have any.
