Add 3 inches of oil to a large sauce pan and heat over medium heat until 375 degrees.
Sift together the flour and seasonings in a large bowl. Add 1/4 cup of water and mix well. Add additional water as needed until the batter is thin enough to drizzle off of your spoon.
Add a handful of fries to the batter and toss to coat.
Place the fries into the hot oil one at a time. Do not add the fries all at once as they will clump together.
Fry until the outsides are crisp and browned and the insides are soft and fluffy, about 10 minutes.
