Garlic Parmesan French Fries
 
 
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
  • 2 medium russet potatoes, cut into 3×¼-inch sticks (about 1 pound)
  • Canola oil, for frying
  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Kosher salt
Instructions
  1. Place potatoes in a large bowl; cover with cold water. Let stand for at least 3 hours or refrigerate overnight. Drain, and pat dry with paper towels.
  2. Fill a large cast-iron Dutch oven halfway with oil, and heat over medium heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 300°.
  3. Working in batches (do not overcrowd pot), fry potatoes, turning occasionally, until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. (Adjust heat as necessary to maintain 300°.) Remove potatoes using a slotted spatula, and let drain on paper towels.
  4. Increase heat to medium-high, and heat oil until deep-fry thermometer registers 400°.
  5. Working in batches (do not overcrowd pot), fry potatoes again, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy, about 5 minutes. (Adjust heat as necessary to maintain 400°.) Remove potatoes using a slotted spatula, and let drain on paper towels. Place fries in a large bowl.
  6. In a small bowl, combine cheese and garlic powder. Sprinkle cheese mixture over fries; gently toss. Sprinkle with salt. Serve immediately.
