During dinner at the W. Fort Lauderdale Hotel, truffled french fries came with our meal. After asking the ingredients, I came home to make them myself. A fun, very delicious, yet high caloric treat! Be sure to buy high quality truffle oil at an Italian or specialty market. My recipe calls for red potatoes, but frozen (shoestring-size) fries do cut down on time and taste almost as good.
Ingredients
- 6 large red potatoes , or more to taste
- 3 cups canola oil
- 0.67 cups dried cilantro
- 0.25 cups grated Parmesan cheese
- 3 cloves garlic , minced, or more to taste
- 2 tablespoons sea salt , or more to taste
- freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 2.5 tablespoons truffle oil
Instructions
-
1
Cut potatoes to desired size, but not too thick. Try to ensure fries are as close to the same size as possible.
-
2
Place fries into a microwave-safe container and microwave for 4 minutes.
-
3
Place oil into a frying pan and heat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
-
4
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.
-
5
Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F (110 degrees C).
-
6
Drain fries in a bowl lined with a paper towel. Toss fries in the bowl to get rid of excess oil; remove paper towel.
-
7
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.
-
8
Bake in the preheated oven to allow truffle oil to settle and reheat fries, 5 to 7 minutes. Serve fries while hot.

Zucchini Raisin Muffins
These moist zucchini and raisin muffins are sweet treats that everyone will love.
Instant Pot Tonkotsu Ramen Broth
Tonkotsu ramen is a noodle dish where the broth is made from pork bones. The broth is the heart and soul of the dish. Traditionally, the broth takes hours, or up to an entire day to make. But with an Instant Pot, that time drops. This recipe makes a creamy pork broth that serves as the perfect base to your tonkotsu ramen dish. Flavor the broth however you'd like, but this recipe suggests using soy sauce, miso, and a Japanese fish bouillon (in granules) called "dashi."
Favorite Old-Fashioned Gingerbread
Gingerbread is everyone's holiday favorite. This old-fashioned recipe is so easy to make and probably very similar to the one your great-grandmother used to make. This moist and lightly spiced gingerbread cake can be served with a dusting of powdered sugar, a dollop of whipped cream, or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. If you prefer a gingerbread with more spice, just double or triple the cinnamon, ginger, and cloves.
