Fried Ingredients
Method
Preparation Steps
- 1
Prepare the Potatoes
Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Cut them into thick fries, about 1/4 to 1/2 inch wide.
- 2
Soak the Potatoes
Place the cut fries in a bowl of cold water and let them soak for at least 30 minutes. This helps to remove excess starch.
- 3
Heat the Beef Tallow
In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the beef tallow to 350°F (175°C).
- 4
Dry the Potatoes
After soaking, drain the fries and pat them dry with paper towels. This step is crucial for achieving a crispy texture.
- 5
Fry the Potatoes
Carefully add the dried fries to the hot beef tallow in batches. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes.
- 6
Drain and Season
Remove the fries from the oil and place them on paper towels to drain. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
- 7
Add Parmesan and Chives
While the fries are still hot, sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over them and toss with chopped chives.
- 8
Serve
Serve the beef-fat fries immediately while hot and crispy.
