Ingredients
Quantities are shown as originally provided.
- 1 lb . Russet Potatoes, about 2 large potatoes
- 1 tbsp grated parmesan
- 1 tbsp chopped parsley
- 3 cloves garlic, finely minced
- pinch of salt, to taste
- drizzle of olive oil, or truffle oil
- vegetable, canola, peanut, or grapeseed oil for frying, enough to cover fries (about
- 3 - 4 inches )
Instructions
- 1
Rinse and scrub your potatoes clean. Use a vegetable peeler to peel the skin off. Cut the potatoes into quarters lengthwise. Then cut further into thinner slices (as thick or thin as you like). Thoroughly pat dry your fries using a paper towel or kitchen towel. Make sure they're as dry as they can be.

Place the fries in a large pan or a medium pot. Cover the fries with enough oil so that the fries are fully immersed. Turn on the heat to medium low, and let the fries cook for 30 to 35 minutes, or until they're golden and crisp.

Transfer the cooked fries to a paper towel-lined plate to briefly rest. Drop in your minced garlic into the hot oil to cook for about 30 seconds or so. Remove them before they've turned golden.

Toss the fries with a drizzle of olive oil in a large bowl before adding the minced garlic, chopped parsley, and grated parmesan. Add a pinch of salt, toss, and taste; add more salt if needed. Serve immediately.
