Duck Fat Fries Ingredients

Method

Duck Fat Fries Directions

  1. 1

    Preparation of Potatoes

    Begin by washing and peeling the Russet potatoes. Cut them into evenly sized fries, about 1/4 inch thick.

  2. 2

    Soaking 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. 3

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

  4. 4

    Drying Fries

    After soaking, drain the fries and pat them dry thoroughly with a kitchen towel.

  5. 5

    Tossing with Duck Fat

    In a large mixing bowl, toss the dried fries with the duck fat, salt, black pepper, and fresh rosemary (if using) until evenly coated.

  6. 6

    Baking the Fries

    Spread the fries in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.

  7. 7

    Serving

    Remove the fries from the oven and let them cool for a minute before serving. Enjoy your duck fat fries hot!
