They're super crispy with earthy truffle flavour, and lots of vegan Parmesan sprinkled on top. Divine! Decide whether you will bake or deep fry the potatoes. Deep Frying: In a deep pot or Dutch oven, heat the oil to 350 F (175 C) using a thermometer for accuracy. Fry the potatoes in batches for 8 to 10 minutes until browned. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel-lined tray. Baking: Preheat to 425 F (218 C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. For crispier baked fries, you can soak the cut potatoes in water for 30 minutes and dry them thoroughly. Toss the dried potatoes with 2 tb of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them in a single layer on the baking sheet, avoiding overcrowding. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, flipping halfway, until crispy and golden. Season and Finish: Place the hot fries in a large bowl. Drizzle with truffle oil. Start with 1 tb and add more if needed. Sprinkle with Parmesan, parsley, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly. Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce, like truffle aioli or garlic aioli. Garnish with extra Parmesan and parsley if desired. Wash and peel the potatoes. Cut into thin fries, about 1/4" thick. Try to keep them uniform for even cooking. Place the cut fries in a bowl of cold water and soak for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours) to remove excess starch. Drain and pat the fries completely dry with a clean kitchen towel.
