Pommes Frites
Method
Preparation and Cooking
- 1
Prepare the Potatoes
Peel the Russet potatoes and cut them into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick. Rinse the potato strips in cold water to remove excess starch, then drain and pat them dry with paper towels.
- 2
Heat the Oil
In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). You can use a thermometer to check the temperature.
- 3
Fry the Potatoes (First Fry)
Carefully add the potato strips to the hot oil in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. Fry for about 4-5 minutes or until they are soft but not browned. Remove them with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

Fry the Potatoes (Second Fry)
Increase the oil temperature to 375°F (190°C). Fry the potatoes again in batches for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Season the Pommes Frites
While the fries are still hot, sprinkle them with salt and drizzle with truffle oil. Toss gently to coat the fries evenly.

Garnish and Serve
Transfer the truffled pommes frites to a serving platter and sprinkle with chopped parsley. Serve immediately.
