Cilantro French Fries Recipes

PERFECT FRENCH FRIES

Steps:

• Peel and rinse the potatoes. Then cut them into sticks by cutting the potato in 4 or 5 vertical pieces, and then cutting each piece into sticks.
• Place them in a large bowl and cover with cold water. Allow them to soak, 2 to 3 hours. (You can also stick them in the fridge and let them soak overnight.)
• When you're ready to make the fries, drain off the water and lay the potatoes on 2 baking sheets lined with paper towels. Blot with paper towels to dry them.
• Heat a few inches of oil in a heavy pot to 300 degrees F. In 3 or 4 batches, cook the potatoes until soft, 4 to 5 minutes per batch. They should not be brown at this point! You just want to start the cooking process. Remove each batch and drain on new/dry paper towels.
• Once all the potatoes have been fried at 300 degrees F, turn up the heat until the oil reaches 400 degrees F. When the oil's hot, start frying the potatoes in batches again, cooking until the fries are golden and crisp. Remove the potatoes from the oil and drain on paper towels.
• Sprinkle with sea salt and dive in!

CILANTRO FRENCH FRIES RECIPE - (4.2/5)

Steps:

• Heat oil in deep-fryer to 365˚F (185˚C). Place 1/3 potatoes in the fryer, and fry for about 5 to 8 minutes, or until almost done. Add 1/3 cilantro, and continue frying for 1 minute. Remove from oil, and drain on paper towels. Skim off any remaining cilantro. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

CILANTRO LIME FRENCH FRIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
• Season fries with seasonings, squeeze lime juice and toss gently.
• Bake for 35-40 minutes or until desired crispiness. I recommend tossing fries halfway through cooking to make sure fries are evenly cooked.

CILANTRO FRIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425℉. Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper and lightly spraying or brushing with oil. Set aside.
• Add potato strips with enough water to cover and soak for 30 minutes in a large bowl. This will remove excess starch from the potatoes and result in crispier fries.
• Drain and rinse the fries, then dry them with a clean kitchen towel or paper towel.
• Toss the fries with olive oil, sea salt, and nutritional yeast flakes.
• Spread in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 35 minutes, flipping after 15 minutes, or bake until golden and crispy.
• Remove fries from the oven and transfer them into a large bowl. Toss fries with cilantro and garlic.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Grease a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
• Combine the cilantro and garlic in a food processor and process until combined.
• Toss the potato wedges with the cilantro-garlic mixture and the olive oil, coating evenly. Spread the potatoes wedges onto the prepared baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes, flipping the potatoes after 10 minutes to crisp on the other side. Season the potatoes with the salt and serve.

BAKED FRENCH FRIES WITH CHILE PEPPERS & CILANTRO

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Cut potatoes lengthwise into slices that are 1/3-inch thick and then cut each slice into 1/3-inch thick strips. Dry the potatoes between two kitchen towels. (Make sure the fries are bone dry.) In a large bowl, combine the potatoes, 3 tablespoons olive oil and 1 teaspoon kosher salt. (Don't over oil or they will become soggy.).
• Divide the potatoes between two baking sheets lined with parchment paper, spread into a single layer. Bake until the potatoes are golden brown, about 40 minutes, turning the potatoes every 10 minutes, and rotating the racks halfway through baking. Note: Mine took less than 40 minutes and turning, also, prevents sticking.
• Heat 1 teaspoon olive in a small nonstick skillet set over medium heat. Add garlic and jalapenos and cook until fragrant, about 1 minutes. Take care not to burn the garlic.
• Place the cooked potatoes in a large bowl and toss with garlic, peppers, and cilantro. Taste and season with additional salt, if necessary.
• To make sauce: In a medium bowl, stir to combine yogurt, mayonnaise, chipotle pepper, adobo sauce and lime juice. Serve with fries.

TRUFFLED FRENCH FRIES

Steps:

• Cut potatoes to desired size, but not too thick. Try to ensure fries are as close to the same size as possible.
• Place fries into a microwave-safe container and microwave for 4 minutes.
• Place oil into a frying pan and heat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Place 1 to 2 handfuls of fries in the frying pan and fry until browned and soft, 4 to 5 minutes, turning and tossing frequently to cook evenly.
• Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F (110 degrees C).
• Drain fries in a bowl lined with a paper towel. Toss fries in the bowl to get rid of excess oil; remove paper towel.
• Combine cilantro, Parmesan cheese, garlic, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Toss fries in the mixture until well mixed. Drizzle fries with truffle oil and toss again until well mixed. Transfer fries to an oven-safe container.
• Bake in the preheated oven to allow truffle oil to settle and reheat fries, 5 to 7 minutes. Serve fries while hot.
