I decided to make truffle fries for this assignment because I always feel good when I am eating fries. I told Chef Gans that I would bring my own truffle oil from home. Unfortunately I forgot the truffle oil. So my plans had to change. I took the beginning part of the recipe for the truffle fries and just changed the rest of the recipe into a delicious spiced home fries recipe. The end result was amazing and everybody around me loved the meal.
During the prep day I prepped the potato's so they would be ready for cook day. I took the potato cleaned it then peeled it so they would not have a dirty out side. Then I cut them into small pieces so they looked like fries. I was really impressed with their shape in the end. I put them in water ver night so they would not rot.
The after being dipped in corn startch, to make sure they would be extremely crispy, I placed the fries evenly between the baskets and then I dropped them into the oil.
I waited until the fries looked as golden brown as they could. I wanted to make sure that they would would be crispy enough that everyone could heard the crunch when they tasted them.
After pulling them out of the deep frier I put them in a big bowl with different spiced and completely covered them in the spices so the flavor would be evenly distributed through out the fry. I ended up adding more spices after a while so they could be extra flavorful. After that, I plated them with some ketchup and let them class devoror all the fries in minutes.
