Fries
Method
Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Potatoes
Wash and peel the Russet potatoes. Cut them into thin strips (about 1/4 inch thick) to create fries.
- 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 and crisp up the fries.
- 3
Heat the Oil
In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
- 4
Dry and Fry the Potatoes
Drain the soaked fries and pat them dry with paper towels. Fry them in batches in the hot oil for about 4-5 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.
- 5
Season the Fries
While still hot, drizzle the truffle oil over the fries and toss to coat. Add the grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper to taste.
- 6
Garnish and Serve
If desired, garnish with chopped fresh parsley. Serve immediately while hot.
