Introduction

These oven-crisped truffle “fries,” adapted from the excellent cooking blog How Sweet Eats, are actually a pretty close approximation of the eye-rolling deliciousness you get with the real deal.

Ingredients

  1. Russet and/or sweet potatoes, cut into fry-sized wedges
  2. Olive oil
  3. Salt
  4. Garlic powder
  5. White truffle oil
  6. Parmesan cheese, grated

Steps

  1. Soak potato pieces in water to remove starch for 30 to 60 minutes.
  2. Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
  3. Pat potatoes dry with a towel, then transfer them to a jelly-roll pan. Toss with the olive oil, salt, and garlic powder.
  4. Bake for 25 minutes, then turn them and bake for another 25 minutes.
  5. Remove from the oven, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, and drizzle with the truffle oil. Toss to coat. Taste and add more salt and truffle oil as needed and re-toss. Serve topped with more Parmesan.
