LEMON-PEPPER FRIES

Categories     side-dish

Time 2h45m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 russet potatoes (about 1 1/2 pounds)
1 1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons grated lemon zest (from 1 lemon)
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon mustard powder
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
Vegetable or canola oil, for deep-frying
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Peel and rinse the potatoes. Slice them lengthwise into thin slices, and then into thin sticks. Place the potato sticks in a bowl and cover them with cold water. Swish them around, then pour off the water and replace it with fresh water. Swish them around again and pour off the water, then cover with fresh water and let soak for 2 to 3 hours.
  • Make the seasoning: Mix the pepper, lemon zest, salt, garlic powder, mustard powder and onion powder in a large bowl and set aside.
  • When you're ready to make the fries, heat about 3 inches of oil in a heavy pot until a deep-fry thermometer registers 300 degrees F.
  • Drain the potatoes and lay them out on baking sheets lined with paper towels. Blot them with more paper towels to dry. Carefully drop half of the fries into the oil and cook until they start to soften, 2 to 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on fresh paper towels. Repeat with the remaining fries.
  • Increase the oil temperature to 400 degrees F. Fry the potatoes in two batches again until golden brown and crisp, 2 to 5 minutes, returning the oil to 400 degrees F between batches. Remove the fries from the oil, add to the bowl with the seasoning and toss to coat. When all the fries are cooked, toss with the parsley.

Tips:

  • For the best results, use russet potatoes. They have a high starch content that makes them crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside.
  • Cut the potatoes into even-sized wedges so that they cook evenly.
  • Toss the potatoes with the olive oil, salt, and pepper before baking. This will help them to brown and crisp.
  • Spread the potatoes out in a single layer on a baking sheet. This will help them to cook evenly.
  • Bake the potatoes at a high temperature (425 degrees Fahrenheit) for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
  • Sprinkle the potatoes with the lime zest and juice before serving. This will add a bright, citrusy flavor.

Conclusion:

These black pepper and lime oven fries are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. They are crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and have a wonderful citrusy flavor. This recipe is a great way to use up leftover potatoes. Serve these fries with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ketchup, mayonnaise, or ranch dressing. They are also great on their own as a healthy snack.
