Method
Potato Preparation
- 1
Cut the Potatoes
Wash and peel the Russet potatoes. Cut them into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick.
- 2
Soak the Potatoes
Place the cut potatoes in a large bowl of cold water and let them soak for at least 30 minutes. This helps to remove excess starch and makes the fries crispier.
- 3
Dry the Potatoes
After soaking, drain the potatoes and pat them dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
Frying the Fries
- 4
Heat the Oil
In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to check the temperature.
- 5
Fry the Potatoes
Carefully add a handful of dried potato strips to the hot oil. Fry them in batches to avoid overcrowding. Cook for about 4-5 minutes or until they are golden brown and crispy.
- 6
Drain the Fries
Using a slotted spoon, remove the fries from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Season with salt immediately.
Seasoning and Serving
- 7
Add Toppings
Once the fries are all fried and drained, transfer them to a large mixing bowl. Drizzle with truffle oil, and sprinkle the shredded Parmesan cheese, chopped parsley, and black pepper over the top.
- 8
Toss and Serve
Gently toss the fries to coat them evenly with the toppings. Serve immediately while hot.
