1
Prepare the Fries
Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Cut them into thin strips (about 1/4 inch thick) to make fries.
2
Soak the Fries
Place the cut fries in a bowl of cold water for about 30 minutes to remove excess starch. This helps them become crispier when fried.
3
Dry the Fries
Drain the fries and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
4
Fry the Potatoes
In a deep fryer or large pot, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot (around 350°F or 175°C), carefully add the fries in batches, frying until golden brown and crispy (about 4-5 minutes per batch).
5
Season the Fries
Remove the fries from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. While they are still hot, sprinkle with sea salt and toss with truffle oil.
6
Prepare Truffle Mayo
In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, truffle oil, and lemon juice. Mix well until smooth.
7
Serve
Plate the fries and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and chopped chives. Serve with truffle mayo on the side for dipping.
