As everyone says, crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. The kids thought they tasted like New York Fries.

Can't say I noticed a difference with the sugar but maybe next time I'll do a side by side.

I really didn't notice a significant difference in frying time because they were soaked first or that they were any crispier than just frying them normally. But we do love fries!!! Thanks for sharing

These were very good. I never heard of soaking your potatoes in sugar. But from here on out this will be the way we make our fries. They definitely ended up much more crispier than they normally do. Thanks for this tip.

I'll never waste money on frozen french fries again! These are better and don't take long at all. I ran out of F.F so I thought I would check to see how to fry them and found this simple recipe. The best, look no further!

Not being able to eat french fries at most restaurants because they are either coated in flour or cooked in the same grease as other breaded things, I have been searching for a way to make crispy fries at home. This is it! I am so happy to finally be able to enjoy fries every once in a while again! Thank you for the recipe, I'll be sharing it with my whole family.

the two key things here are the sugar water and cooking twice!!! I will admit i was skeptical especially when i saw how soggy the potatos were out of the sugar water and then after they cooled from being in the oil after dipping the first time. but they came out perfectly crispy after the second dip in the oil for a few more minutes. One other note...if you've tried french frying potatoes at home you know that cooking them takes forever..this method speeds it up greatly we did two batches in less time than it normally took one. good recipe..finally good fresh cut fries at home!!!

My husband loved the flavor. However, I was unable to determine if my oil was hot enough. Therefore, not quite crispy but that is due to my skills and not a reflection on the recipe.

Not sure if we did not let them cook long enough or what but they where not that crisp. Not bad but not great.
