By á-174942

Ingredients

• 2 pounds red bliss potatoes scrubbed well, patted dry, skins left on
• 4 cups vegetable oil for frying
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan
• 1 tablespoon truffle oil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon freshly-ground black pepper

Preparation

Step 1

Using a mandolin or very sharp, heavy knife, slice the potatoes into rounds as thin as possible, and place in a large bowl of water to prevent discoloration.

Heat the oil in a large, heavy pot to between 340 and 350 degrees.

Pat the potatoes completely dry. Add to the oil in batches and cook until golden brown, stirring with a long handled spoon to turn and cook evenly, about 2 minutes. Drain on paper towels and place in a large bowl. Toss with the cheese, truffle oil, salt, and pepper. Serve immediately.
