French Fries
Don't overfill the fry basket. This lowers the oil temperature quickly, and will produce limp fries and they will tend to stick together.
Follow directions - cook the fries at the recommended temperature for the recommended time.
Old oil, dirty oil or oil that is too hot will produce fries that will not be an appetizing golden brown.
Limp fries also result from too low a temperature, undercooking, and salting too soon. Wait a minute or so after they are cooked before salting them.
