Generally a fork test to determine how soft they are..
If your talking about the fries already cut It would only be a blanching and only for about 2 min...

I would say probably about 8 minutes or so. That will get them lightly cooked without falling apart on you. If you have them in smaller pieces, maybe just 7 minutes. Drain quickly so they don't keep cooking.

Between 10-15 minutes. Usually takes around 20 for full-boiled. I would test with a fork along the way. If cut in strips already, less time.
