Belgian Frites (French Fries) In Belgium, mussels are traditionally served with frites or French fries and following is the definitive method of preparing Belgian frite: The perfect Belgian frite should be 1/2 inch on each side and 3 inches long. Soak freshly cut frite in cold water for 10-15 minutes to wash off starch. The most important step is the "double friture" or double frying. First, fry the frite at 300oF. Let the frites cool completely before frying them for the second time at 360 degrees F. Return to recipe index
