Lightly oil an 8x8-inch square-shaped baking dish.
Add the water and 1 tsp salt to a medium saucepan over medium heat.
Whisk the flour into the water then grab a spoon and stir continously for about 5 minutes, the mixture will be very thick.
Scrape the mixture into your oiled baking dish then spread the mixture evenly in the dish and set aside to cool for about 10 minutes.
Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
Flip the dish over onto a cutting board to release the molded mixture then cut it into stick-shapes roughly 1/2-inch thick by 4-inches long.
Heat a cast-iron pan with about a 1/4-inch of oil over high heat until the oil begins to lightly smoke.
Cook the fries in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan, in the hot oil, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy on all sides, about 8 minutes total per batch.
Transfer the cooked fries to a paper towel lined plate and continue cooking the remaining fries the same way, adding more oil to the pan if needed.
