French Fry Deluxe Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Make the yogurt sauce: In a medium bowl, mix together the yogurt, parsley, dill, garlic, salt, and lemon juice. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use, up to 1 week.
• In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, heat 2-3 inches (5-7.5 cm) of vegetable oil over medium-low heat until the temperature reaches 325°F (170°C).
• Make the fries: Fill a large bowl with cold water, the ice, and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice.
• Peel the potatoes and slice into ¼-inch (½ cm) thick strips about 3 inches long. Transfer the potato slices to the cold water as you go. Rinse the potatoes under more cold water in the bowl until the water runs clear, rinsing off any excess starch. Add the remaining tablespoon of lemon juice and chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
• Line 2 baking sheets with thick paper, such as brown paper grocery bags.
• Remove the potatoes from the fridge and drain, then dry completely with a clean kitchen towel.
• Working in batches, cook the potatoes in the hot oil for 6-8 minutes, or until they're soft and light golden in color. Remove the fries from the oil using a wire mesh skimmer and transfer to the prepared baking sheets to drain. Let stand at room temperature for 15-20 minutes.
• Increase the oil temperature to 375°F (190°C).
• Working in batches, return the fries to the hot oil and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Drain on clean paper-lined baking sheets. Sprinkle generously with the zesty seasoning
• To assemble, spread a layer of fries on a platter and top with some of the yogurt sauce, the chickpeas, cucumbers, lettuce, tomato, red onion, and feta. Top with more yogurt sauce. Sprinkle with dill.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Slice cucumber and toss with lettuce, celery and carrots. Place leaf lettuce on plate or container as an under liner. Add the greens.
• Place the remaining ingredients in neat rows across the greens. Slice the meat and cheese in strips and place on top of the salad. Serve with your choice of fat-free salad dressing.

Steps:

• Set the oven to broil with a rack set about 4 inches from the heat source.
• Peel the zest away from the lemon in long strips, avoiding the white pith. Place the lemon zest, rosemary sprigs and oil in a small saucepan over medium-low heat and heat until the oil just comes to a simmer, about 10 minutes. Turn off the heat and allow to sit at room temperature while you prepare the soup.
• Melt the butter over medium heat in a large saucepan. Add the white and light green parts of the scallions (about 1/2 cup) and the garlic. Cook until softened, stirring constantly, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the chicken broth, 2 cups water and the French fries, bring to a boil and then reduce to a simmer. Simmer uncovered until the potatoes soften and start to break apart in the broth, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, strain the rosemary and lemon strips from the oil. Juice the lemon and whisk into the strained oil. Season with salt and pepper. Brush some of the oil onto the halved baguette, place on a baking sheet and broil until lightly golden brown, about 3 minutes.
• Once the potatoes are fully softened, use an immersion blender to puree the soup until completely smooth. Season with additional salt if needed.
• To serve, ladle the soup into bowls. Top with a dollop of sour cream. Drizzle with some of the remaining rosemary-lemon oil and garnish with the dark scallion greens. Cut the baguette into smaller pieces and serve alongside the soup.

Steps:

• Set French fries aside; keep warm. In a large bowl, combine all remaining ingredients until well blended. Add French fries to mixture in bowl; blend in with spatula, using folding motion, being careful not to break fries. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spread the french fries on a baking sheet and bake until golden and warmed through, about 10 minutes.
• Put the garlic, almonds and olive oil in a food processor and pulse until finely ground. Add the french fries, lemon juice, 1 1/4 cups water and 1/2 teaspoon salt and pulse until almost smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Serve with pita chips and/or vegetables.

Steps:

• Toss half a 28-ounce bag frozen shoestring fries with 2 teaspoons each olive oil and chopped rosemary. Spread on a baking sheet and bake at 425˚ until crisp, about 30 minutes. Meanwhile, mix 1/2 minced shallot, 3 tablespoons champagne vinegar and a pinch of salt in a large bowl; whisk in 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard. Add 1 chopped head frisee and 1/4 cup chopped chives. Add the fries and 2 ounces crumbled goat cheese, season with salt and pepper and toss.

Steps:

• Make the franks: Whisk the flour, cornmeal, sugar and paprika in a large bowl. Add the egg and milk and whisk to make a thick batter, adding more milk if the mixture is too dry. Add 1/4 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste.
• Heat about 2 inches vegetable oil in a large pot over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 375 degrees F. Dip the franks in the batter, then carefully wrap a long curly fry around each. (If desired, thread the franks on wooden skewers before wrapping with fries.)
• Working in batches, fry the franks in the hot oil, turning, until golden on all sides, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels; sprinkle with salt.
• Meanwhile, make the dip: Whisk the Sriracha, lime juice and mayonnaise in a bowl. Serve with the franks.
