Follow The Directions

01

Step

Prepare the Potatoes: Cut the potatoes into uniform French fry shapes (approximately 3/8-inch thick). Soak them in a large bowl of ice-cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch. (30 minutes)

02

Step

First Fry: Drain the potatoes thoroughly and pat them completely dry with paper towels. Heat peanut oil in a deep-fryer or large, heavy-bottomed saucepan to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C). Gently lower about 1/4 of the potatoes into the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the fryer. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Remove the fries with a slotted spoon and place them on a clean wire rack or paper towel-lined baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining potatoes. (15 minutes)

03

Step

Second Fry: Increase the oil temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Fry the potatoes again, in batches, until they are golden brown and crispy, about 5 minutes. Remove the fries with a slotted spoon and place them on a clean wire rack or paper towel-lined baking sheet to drain any excess oil. (20 minutes)

04

Step

Truffle Infusion: Immediately transfer the hot fries to a large bowl. Drizzle evenly with truffle oil, tossing gently to coat. (2 minutes)

05

Step

Parmesan & Parsley Finish: Sprinkle generously with finely shredded Parmesan cheese, minced fresh parsley, and sea salt. Toss again to ensure the fries are evenly coated. Serve immediately and enjoy! (3 minutes)

For extra crispy fries, ensure the potatoes are completely dry before frying.
Use high-quality truffle oil for the best flavor.
Adjust the amount of Parmesan cheese and sea salt to your personal preference.
These fries are best served immediately while they are still hot and crispy.
