- 2 Cups Duck Fat
- 2 Cups Vegetable or Canola Oil (Or use 2 more cups of Duck Fat)

Direction
- Peel sides of potatoes and cut potatoes into 1/8 in" matchsticks.
- Place potato matchsticks in a large bowl of cold water and let soak for 30 min to wash off the starch.
- Heat duck fat and oil together in a large Dutch oven or pan until it reaches 375 degrees F.
- Remove the potato matchsticks from the water, drain, and carefully add them to the duck fat and oil mix.
- Let fry for 5 minutes. Remove and let oil drain off and cool for a few minutes.
- Put the fries back in the duck fat oil mix and cook for an additional 10 minutes or until crispy.
- Remove from oil and let extra oil drip off. Toss with sea salt and dried thyme and serve.
