Potato Preparation
Truffle Flavoring
Method
Preparing the Potatoes
- 1
Peel and Cut the Potatoes
Peel the Russet potatoes and cut them into long, thin strips to form fries.
- 2
Soak the Fries
Place the cut fries in a large bowl of cold water and soak for at least 30 minutes. This helps to remove excess starch and makes the fries crispier.
- 3
Drain and Dry
After soaking, drain the fries and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel to remove moisture.
Frying the Fries
- 4
Heat the Oil
In a large, deep pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
- 5
Fry the Potatoes
Carefully add a batch of the dried fries to the hot oil, being careful not to overcrowd the pot. Fry them for about 4-5 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
- 6
Drain and Season
Using a slotted spoon, remove the fries from the oil and drain them on paper towels. While they are still hot, sprinkle with salt to taste.
Adding Truffle Flavor
- 7
Toss with Truffle Oil
In a large bowl, drizzle the hot fries with truffle oil while tossing them gently to coat evenly.
- 8
Add Cheese and Herbs
Sprinkle the freshly grated Parmesan cheese, chopped parsley, and black pepper over the fries and toss again to combine.
