Ingredients
4 large Russet potatoes
3 cups vegetable oil (for frying)
2 tablespoons truffle oil
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
1. Peel and cut the potatoes into 1/4-inch thick fries. Soak in cold water for at least 30 minutes.
2. Drain and dry the fries thoroughly with a clean towel.
3. Heat oil in a deep pot to 325°F (165°C). Fry the potatoes in batches for 3–4 minutes until just soft. Remove and drain.
4. Let the fries cool for 15–20 minutes.
5. Increase oil temperature to 375°F (190°C). Fry the cooled fries again in batches for 2–3 minutes until golden and crisp.
6. Immediately drizzle the fries with truffle oil, and sprinkle with Parmesan, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
7. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve hot.
Notes
Soaking the potatoes is essential for removing starch and ensuring crispiness.
Do not skip the double frying—it makes all the difference in texture.
Use high-quality truffle oil for authentic, rich flavor.
