Potatoes are a little different - and you wouldn't want to fry your donuts
in beef grease (as the Belgians do), would you?
First turn at low temperature to cook the potatoes and get rid of too much moisture. Before that, you have to cut them and soak them in water to
remove most of the starch (chose potatoes with as little starch as possible
anyways) and dry them, of course.
Second turn at high heat to make them crunchy.
Sweet potato fries/chips are delicious, too - had some last Saturday at
a British/American barbecue which involved a lot of deep frying.
