Truffled French Fries

During dinner at the W. Fort Lauderdale Hotel, truffled french fries came with our meal. After asking the ingredients, I came home to make them myself. A fun, very delicious, yet high caloric treat!

Be sure to buy high quality truffle oil at an Italian or specialty market.

My recipe calls for red potatoes, but frozen (shoestring-size) fries do cut down on time and taste almost as good.

DIRECTION

Step: 1

Cut potatoes to desired size, but not too thick. Try to ensure fries are as close to the same size as possible.

Step: 2

Place fries into a microwave-safe container and microwave for 4 minutes.

Step: 3

Place oil into a frying pan and heat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Step: 4

Place 1 to 2 handfuls of fries in the frying pan and fry until browned and soft, 4 to 5 minutes, turning and tossing frequently to cook evenly.

Step: 5

Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F (110 degrees C).

Step: 6

Drain fries in a bowl lined with a paper towel. Toss fries in the bowl to get rid of excess oil; remove paper towel.

Step: 7

Combine cilantro, Parmesan cheese, garlic, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Toss fries in the mixture until well mixed. Drizzle fries with truffle oil and toss again until well mixed. Transfer fries to an oven-safe container.

Step: 8

Bake in the preheated oven to allow truffle oil to settle and reheat fries, 5 to 7 minutes. Serve fries while hot.

The most obvious way to choose a side dish is to look at your main dish (pasta, chicken, seared tofu) and pick more different. When you’re making pasta, make sure for a simple vegetable . Making steak? Go for something light. If you’re want to cooking stir-fry with rice, it must not a good idea to adjust with make a rice salad.

This also can make to cooking process . You don’t want to overcommit your oven by making to do list three dishes at once in there, or be rounding four pans on the cooking items . But often you can make a dish do more often .
