Garlic Parmesan Fries
These crispy fries are tossed in a delicious blend of garlic and parmesan, making them a fantastic side or snack. You’ll love the comforting aroma filling your kitchen as they bake. Here’s how to make them!
Ingredients:
- 5 large russet potatoes
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Wash and peel the russet potatoes, then cut them into thin fries. The thinner you cut them, the crispier they’ll become.
- Soak the cut fries in a bowl of cold water for about 30 minutes. This helps to remove excess starch and makes them even crispier when baked.
- After soaking, drain the fries and pat them dry with a kitchen towel to remove any moisture.
- In a large bowl, toss the dried fries with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper until well coated.
- Spread the fries out in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Be sure not to overcrowd the pan for that perfect crispy texture.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy.
- Once out of the oven, sprinkle the hot fries with grated parmesan cheese while they’re still warm. This allows the cheese to melt slightly, creating a delicious coating.
- Finally, garnish your fries with chopped fresh parsley for a pop of color and added freshness.
- Serve warm and enjoy your homemade Garlic Parmesan Fries as a side dish or a snack!
