Ingredients
- 1 ½ Russet potatoes
- ¼ cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil or other neutral oil
- 1 tablespoon Truffle oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- ½ cup Vegan Parmesan grated
- 2 cloves Garlic minced
- Parsley or Chives
Instructions
- Begin by scrubbing the skin of the potatoes with water to remove any dirt. Peel the potatoes if you don't want skin-on french fries (I left the skin on mine).
- Use a sharp knife to carefully cut the potatoes into fry shapes.
- Slice the potatoes down the middle, longways. Then, take each half of the potato and slice in half again, so that you have one flat potato panel and one rounded piece. Next, slice each of the 4 pieces into long strips. Refer to this video for fry-cutting technique.
- Once all of the potatoes are sliced, place them in a large mixing bowl and cover with cool water. Let sit for 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, mince the garlic cloves, chop the parsley, and grate the cheese.
- Pre-heat the oven to 400º Fahrenheit.
- After 30 minutes, remove the sliced potatoes from the water and pat them dry, thoroughly.
- Add the dried potatoes back to a (dry) mixing bowl, then add olive oil (or another neutral oil), the truffle oil, and the minced garlic. Toss until very well combined.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, you may need two trays.
- Dump the fries onto the baking sheets, and spread them out as much as you can so that no fry is on top of another fry.
- Place in the oven and bake for about 20 minutes, until golden brown.
- Once the fries are done baking, remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle with salt (or truffle salt!)
- Let them cool enough to touch, then serve in a bowl, garnish with parsley and vegan parmesan!
Notes
- Pair this with a truffle-infused spicy mayo! Just mix together some truffle hot sauce with vegan mayonnaise and there you go! The perfect fry sauce.
- Don't skip the step of soaking the potatoes. This helps to remove some of the starch, which results in crispier french fries.
- Feel free to add more truffle products such as truffle salt, other truffle oils, and more.
- This recipe works in the air fryer! Instead of baking them in the oven, air fry these at 350ºF for 10 minutes, then shake the fries in the basket, and air fry for 8 more minutes.
