Method

Preparation of Potatoes

  1. 1

    Cut the Potatoes

    Wash and peel the Russet potatoes. Cut them into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick, to create fries.

  2. 2

    Soak the Fries

    Place the cut fries in a bowl of cold water and let them soak for at least 30 minutes. This removes excess starch and helps achieve a crispier fry.

Cooking the Fries

  1. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a large, deep pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). You can test the oil by dropping in a small piece of potato; if it sizzles, the oil is ready.

  2. 4

    Dry the Fries

    After soaking, drain the fries and pat them dry thoroughly with paper towels to avoid splattering when frying.

  3. 5

    Fry the Potatoes

    Carefully add a batch of fries to the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pot. Fry for about 4-5 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove them from the oil and drain on paper towels.

  4. 6

    Repeat

    Continue frying the remaining fries in batches, ensuring the oil returns to temperature between batches.

Final Assembly

  1. 7

    Mix with Truffle Oil Mixture

    In a large bowl, combine the fried potatoes with truffle oil, chopped parsley, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss well to ensure the fries are evenly coated.

  2. 8

    Serve

    Transfer the truffle fries to a serving platter and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese before serving. Enjoy your delicious truffle fries!
