Method

Prepare the Fries

1

Bake the Fries

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss the skinny fries with olive oil and salt in a bowl until evenly coated. Spread them on a baking sheet in a single layer and bake for 25-30 minutes, turning halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.

3

Add Wine and Mussels

Pour in the white wine and bring to a simmer. Add the mussels, cover the pot, and cook for 5-7 minutes until the mussels have opened. Discard any mussels that do not open.

Finish with Dill and Lemon

Stir in the chopped dill and lemon juice. Remove from heat.
