How to make potato sticks
Peel the potatoes and cut them into pieces and cook them in salted boiling water for about 7-8 minutes. Once cooked, mash them in a bowl.

Knead everything well, then transfer the dough onto a lightly floured parchment paper.
Then roll out with a rolling pin and use a knife to create multiple sticks.
Fry the potato sticks in hot oil until they are golden brown.
Serve your sticks with your favorite sauces, and enjoy your meal!
Storage and advice for potato sticks
For this preparation, it would be preferable to consume them immediately, otherwise, they lose their crispness. Freezing is also not recommended as they would remain too soft and not as enjoyable as those cooked and eaten fresh.
