Method
Preparing the Fries
- 1
Cut the Potatoes
Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Cut them into thick fry shapes, about 1/4 inch thick.
- 2
Soak the Potatoes
Place the cut fries in a large bowl of water and let them soak for at least 30 minutes. This helps remove excess starch.
- 3
Dry the Potatoes
After soaking, drain the potatoes and pat them dry with paper towels to remove as much moisture as possible.
- 4
Fry the Potatoes
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep fryer or a large pot to 350°F (175°C). Carefully add the fries in batches, frying until they are 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. Sprinkle with salt immediately.
Preparing the Toppings
- 6
Combine Topping Ingredients
In a mixing bowl, combine the crumbled feta cheese, chopped Kalamata olives, fresh oregano, and halved cherry tomatoes. Mix gently to combine.
- 7
Make the Yogurt Sauce
In a small bowl, mix together the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, minced garlic, and black pepper to taste. Adjust seasoning as needed.
Assembly
