Frites
Method
Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Potatoes
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Wash and peel the russet potatoes, then slice them into thin strips. Soak the potato strips in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.

Bake the Frites
Drain the potatoes and pat them dry with a kitchen towel. In a large bowl, toss the potato strips with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Spread the potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.

Add Parmesan
Remove the frites from the oven and immediately sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the hot frites. Toss gently to coat the fries with the cheese.
