Lemon Fries Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Peel potatoes and cut into 3/8-inch thick slices (lengthwise) cut again into 3/8-inch thick fries. Place the potatoes into a bowl with cold water; this will help keep the fries crisp and white. Just before cooking, drain water and place on paper towel, pat dry completely. Put in a bowl; add olive oil, 1 tablespoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Toss well and lay out in 1 layer on nonstick baking sheets. Bake until light brown. Cook for approximately 30 to 40 minutes, turning frequently until golden brown.
• Remove from oven. Add lemon zest, parsley, garlic, salt and pepper. Toss well and serve.

Steps:

• 1. Cut the potatoes lengthwise into thin strips, about 1/3-inch in width. *Soak the potatoes in ice-cold water for 1 hour, drain, and pat completely dry.
• 2. Heat the oil in a deep fryer or deep skillet to 325*F. and fry the potatoes, in batches, for 2 minutes. Drain the fries on fresh kitchen towels and heat the oil to 375*F. Fry the potatoes for a second time, in batches, for 1 1/2 minutes. Drain the fries on baking sheets lined with fresh kitchen towels. Gently toss the fries with the lemon zest, juice, salt, and pepper. Serve the lemon fries hot.

• My Note: This lemon fries recipe makes 4 large or 6 small servings for the kids.
• **Cook's note: Keep a splatter-guard handy for this recipe. If you do get hot oil on your skin, hold it under cold running water for several minutes and seek medical attention if in doubt. Never use ice to chill a burn; it can cause skin damage.
