Then pat dry potatoes using cheesecloth or paper towel

Toss the potatoes with cornstarch.

Heat oil in a deep fryer or large saucepan to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C). Gently add the potatoes in the hot oil for about 2-3 minutes, stirring and flipping the potatoes occasionally. Remove potatoes from oil with a slotted spoon to drain on paper towel and to cool completely.
