Did someone say fries? Pat loves fries especially if they are loaded with so many flavors including truffles! Pat hopes you will enjoy these Tripple Threat Truffle Fries which can be made easily in an air fryer!
1 tbsp vinegar (white, red wine, or apple cider will work)
1-3 tbsp olive oil
1-2 oz panchetta
1-3 tbsp fresh herbs of your choice finely chopped
1-2 garlic cloves
Truffle Pecorino cheese, grated to taste
Fontina cheese, grated, to taste
Lemon zest, to taste
Onion salt, to taste
Everyday seasoning, to taste
Directions
Heat a few cups of water to boiling (or near boiling)
While the water heats, peel and cut potatoes as desired. Keep them on the thinner side to ensure a crispy fry
In a large pot or bowl, combine potatoes, water and vinegar. Soak for 15-25 minutes. The water bath will tenderize the potatoes and remove starch. This will result in crunchy fries!
Sauté pancetta with 1 tbsp of the herbs in a skillet until crispy
Drain fries and dry thoroughly. Toss them with a generous tablespoon of oil and a pinch of salt
Cook fries in the air fryer at 400 degrees for 25 minutes. Pull them out and give them a toss. Cook for another 10-20 minutes, until it reaches your desired texture
Time to top them off! While the fries are hot, splash them with a little olive oil and grate garlic over them. Add in the cheese, herbs, and lemon zest
Give everything a toss and serve with truffle ketchup!
