Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Step 1: Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and scrub the russet potatoes thoroughly. Cut them into ¼-inch thick strips to create fries. Soak the cut fries in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.

  2. 2

    Step 2: Dry the Fries

    Drain the soaked fries and pat them dry using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels to remove any excess moisture.

  3. 3

    Step 3: Heat the Oil

    In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Make sure to use a thermometer for accuracy.

  4. 4

    Step 4: Fry the Potatoes

    Carefully add the dried potato strips to the hot oil in batches, avoiding overcrowding. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 4-6 minutes per batch.

  5. 5

    Step 5: Drain and Season

    Using a slotted spoon, remove the fries and drain them on paper towels. While still hot, drizzle with truffle oil and sprinkle with sea salt and black pepper to taste.

  6. 6

    Step 6: Garnish and Serve

    If desired, chop fresh parsley and sprinkle over the fries before serving. Enjoy your hand-cut truffle fries hot!
