What potatoes are best for frying?
Online Answer
The best potatoes for frying are Yukon Gold or Russets. I've used red potatoes as well. If you use Russets you definitely want to soak them in water before frying but they will be crispier overall. Peanut oil or any light vegetable oil is necessary for the crispy crust you're looking for.

Russets are oblong in shape. These thick-skinned potatoes fall apart while cooking, and whip up fluffy and light. This makes them the ideal choice for mashing. Because they have a light, mealy texture, high-starch potatoes are the best baked potato.
