Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Truffle Parmesan French Fries.
Step 1
Start by cutting your red potatoes into evenly sized fries, making sure they’re not too thick for the perfect crunch.
Step 2
Next, place the cut fries in a microwave-safe container and pop them in the microwave for about four minutes.
Step 3
This will help soften them just a bit, setting the stage for that delightful fry experience.
Step 4
While the fries are softening, heat some canola oil in a frying pan until it reaches a sizzling 375°F (190°C).
Step 5
Once the oil is hot, carefully add one or two handfuls of fries to the pan.
Step 6
Fry them for four to five minutes, turning them frequently until they turn a beautiful golden brown and become tender.
Step 7
While your fries are frying to perfection, preheat your oven to a cozy 225°F (110°C).
Step 8
When the fries are done, drain them in a bowl lined with paper towels to soak up any excess oil, giving them a gentle toss to ensure they’re nice and dry.
Step 9
In a separate bowl, mix together dried cilantro, grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, sea salt, and black pepper.
Step 10
This fragrant blend will elevate your fries to a whole new level! Toss the drained fries in this delicious mixture until they’re evenly coated, then drizzle with a touch of truffle oil and give them another toss to combine all those wonderful flavors.
Step 11
Now, transfer your seasoned fries to an oven-safe container and bake them in the preheated oven for about five to seven minutes.
Step 12
This step allows the flavors to meld beautifully and gives the fries a chance to reheat.
Step 13
Finally, serve your truffle fries hot, and if you’re feeling extra indulgent, sprinkle on some additional Parmesan for that finishing touch.
Step 14
Enjoy every crispy, flavorful bite!.
