Method

SIDES

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the Russet potatoes. Cut them into evenly sized fries, about 1/4 inch thick.

  2. 2

    Soak the Potatoes

    Place the cut fries in a bowl of cold water and soak for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch. Drain and pat dry with paper towels.

  3. 3

    Heat the Beef Tallow

    In a deep pot or fryer, heat the beef tallow to 350°F (175°C).

  4. 4

    Fry the Potatoes

    Carefully add the dried fries to the hot beef tallow in batches. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes per batch. Use a slotted spoon to remove the fries and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess fat.

  5. 5

    Prepare the Truffle Aioli

    In a bowl, combine the mayonnaise, minced garlic, lemon juice, truffle oil, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste.

  6. 6

    Add Truffle Butter

    Once all fries are fried, place them in a large mixing bowl. Melt the truffle butter and pour it over the hot fries. Toss well to coat.

  7. 7

    Serve the Fries

    Grate the Grana Padano cheese over the fries while they are hot. Top with chopped fresh herbs. Serve immediately with truffle aioli on the side.
