Method

Fries Preparation

1

Prepare the Potatoes

Wash and peel the russet potatoes, then cut them into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick.

2

Soak the Fries

Place the cut potatoes in a bowl of cold water and let them soak for at least 30 minutes. This helps to remove excess starch and makes the fries crispier.

3

Dry the Fries

Drain the soaked potatoes and pat them dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture.

4

Heat the Oil

In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).

5

Fry the Potatoes

Carefully add the dried potato strips to the hot oil in batches, frying for about 5-6 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Remove and place on a paper towel-lined plate.

6

Season the Fries

Immediately sprinkle the hot fries with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika while they are still hot.

7

Add Parmesan

Toss the fries with freshly grated Parmesan cheese while they are still hot to ensure the cheese melts slightly and sticks to the fries.

Ranch Dipping Sauce Preparation

8

Mix the Ingredients

In a medium bowl, combine mayonnaise, sour cream, buttermilk, garlic powder, dried dill, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.

9

Whisk Together

Whisk the mixture until smooth and well combined.

10

Refrigerate

Cover the bowl and refrigerate the ranch dipping sauce for at least 30 minutes before serving to let the flavors meld.
