Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 4 medium Russet potatoes about 1 potato per person
  • 4 cloves Garlic smushed through a garlic press or finely minced
  • 1 cup Fresh parsley finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons Truffle oil to taste
  • 1 teaspoon Truffle salt to finish
  • Oil for frying high smoke point oil like canola or peanut oil

Equipment

  • Mandoline
  • Oil thermometer
  • Large pot or deep fryer
  • Slotted spoon

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Start by washing the Russet potatoes thoroughly. Using a mandoline, slice the potatoes into thin strips (about 1/4 inch thick). Rinse the sliced potatoes in cold water to remove excess starch.
  2. Soak the sliced potatoes in a bowl of cold water for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Pour oil into a large pot or deep fryer, filling it about 3 inches deep. Heat the oil to 350°F (175°C).
  4. Once the oil is hot, drain and pat the potatoes dry. Carefully drop a handful of the soaked potatoes into the hot oil. Fry for about 4-6 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
  5. Using a slotted spoon, remove the fries from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels. While they're still hot, sprinkle with truffle salt and toss with minced garlic and chopped parsley.
  6. Serve your Garlic Truffle Fries hot, garnished with additional parsley and a sprinkle of truffle salt if desired.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, sprinkle parmesan cheese over the fries before serving.
  • Try using Yukon Gold or sweet potatoes for a different taste.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days and reheat in the oven.
