Fried Potato Fries Recipe With Parmisan Cheese

Ingredients

• 6-8 large potatoes
• Oil for deep frying
• Parmigiano Reggiano (Parmesan Cheese)
• Chili Flakes
• Fresh Parsley
• Salt & White Pepper

Directions

1. Scrub and peel the potatoes. Reserve them in a large bowl full of cold water.
2. Slice the peeled potatoes into french fries and then put them back into the cold water.
3. Drain the potato fries and dry them well on a paper towel.
4. Heat the oil in a deep fryer to 320F and deep fry the fries until they are half done. They should be cooked through but pale and soggy looking. Remove from oil, drain and let cool for 20 minutes.
5. While the fries are cooling dice the parsley, grate about 2 tablespoons of the Parmigiano Reggiano, and mix all together with 1 tablespoon of chili flakes.
6. Now reheat the oil to 375F and add the fries back in until they are brown and crisp.
7. Drain again and toss with salt & pepper and the Parmesan, chili, and parsley mix. Careful not to add to much salt…the cheese is already a bit salty.
