Method
Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Potatoes
Wash and peel the Russet potatoes. Cut them into fries, ensuring they are of even thickness for uniform cooking.
- 2
Soak the Fries
Soak the cut fries in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch. This will help achieve a crispier texture.
- 3
Preheat the Oil
In a deep fryer or a heavy pot, heat oil to 350°F (175°C). If using a fryer, follow the manufacturer's instructions.
- 4
Fry the Potatoes
Drain the soaked fries and pat them dry with a clean towel. Carefully add them to the hot oil in batches, frying until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes per batch.
- 5
Drain and Season
Remove the fries from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. While still hot, toss them with salt, black pepper, and truffle oil.
- 6
Add Cheese and Serve
Sprinkle the grated Manchego cheese over the fries while they are still warm, allowing it to melt slightly. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve immediately.
