Helpful Tips
Use russet potatoes: They're starchy and crisp up beautifully in the oven. Be sure to cut them evenly for consistent cooking.
Soak the fries: A 30-minute soak in cold water helps remove excess starch, which means crispier fries. Just don't skip drying them well afterward - moisture is the enemy of crispy fries.
Don't crowd the pan: Give your fries space to breathe. Overcrowding = steaming = soggy fries. Use two baking pans if you need to!
Add truffle oil after baking: Truffle oil is delicate and loses flavor when heated, so drizzle it on once the fries are hot out of the oven.
Season and serve right away: Add salt and cheese while the fries are still hot so everything sticks. These fries are best fresh - hot, crisp, and fragrant. Have your dipping sauce ready and dig in.

fun Variations
Truffle Garlic Fries: Add minced garlic or a sprinkle of garlic powder before baking, then finish with truffle oil and Parmesan.
Spicy Truffle Fries: Toss in a pinch of cayenne pepper or crushed red pepper flakes for a little heat.
Herby Upgrade: Sprinkle with fresh parsley, thyme, or rosemary just before serving for extra flavor and a pop of color.
Cheese Swap: Try Pecorino Romano or Asiago instead of Parmesan for a sharper, saltier bite.
Sweet Potato Version: Use sweet potatoes for a slightly sweeter, earthier take - they pair beautifully with truffle oil too.
Loaded Truffle Fries: Top with a drizzle of garlic aioli, crispy bacon, or even a fried egg if you're feeling bold.

Recipe

Parmesan Truffle Fries
Equipment
Ingredients
- 3 russet potatoes medium
- 1 tablespoon parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon white truffle oil
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- Heat your deep fryer to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. (See notes for alternative oven baking directions.)
- Wash your potatoes thoroughly on the outside.
- Cut your potatoes with a slicer to get the thicker julienne (fries) cut.
- Put your potatoes in a bowl of ice water and rinse the water until the water is clear.
- Once your fryer has warmed up to 350 degrees Fahrenheit, fry your fries twice. First time you fry them for about 6-8 minutes, or until light brown.
- Then remove them from the fryer and let all the oil drip off.
- Then fry them again, for about 2 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Put them in a bowl with kitchen towels, so it can absorb all the oil.
- Grab a medium-sized bowl and pour in the truffle oil, and then the fries on top. Mix and shake the fries on top of the oil, to make sure all the fries get some of the truffle oil on it. (I don't pour it over it because it can make it a little soggy)
- Then top with some Parmesan cheese and season with salt to taste.
