Pomme Frites With Roasted Garlic Aioli Recipes

EASY GARLIC AND PARMESAN POMME FRITES

Steps:

• Follow the package instructions for baking the fries in the oven for a very crispy result. Most packages will provide different cooking times depending on desired crispness. Bake using the instructions for the crispiest result.
• While the fries are baking, take the very finely diced garlic and add it to the olive oil in a small saucepan. Stir and cook over medium-high heat until the oil starts to bubble, usually within one minute.
• Then turn the flame off and let the mixture sit in the hot pan for another minute, stirring once in that time. The goal is to soften the garlic, but not fry it. Heating the garlic and lightly cooking it in the oil will reduce the sharpness of the raw garlic and allow the garlic essence to permeate the olive oil. Set aside.
• When the potatoes are finished, immediately remove from the oven, and tip the baking sheet to drop the fries into a large mixing bowl. The bowl should be large enough to toss the fries without them spilling out.
• Pour the garlic oil mixture in a circular pattern to distribute it over the fries as much as possible. Use a silicone spatula to scrape out all the excess oil from the pan.
• Then pour in in the grated parmesan and the chopped parsley.
• Using a pair of tongs, thoroughly toss the contents of the bowl so that the pomme frites are evenly coated with the oil and all the other seasoning components.
• Serve warm.

ROASTED GARLIC AIOLI

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Trim off the top of the head of garlic to expose cloves. Drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle salt and black pepper on top. Wrap in aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until garlic feels soft when lightly pressed, about 1 hour. Unwrap and cool, 5 to 10 minutes. Refrigerate until chilled, 30 minutes to 1 hour.
• Pull out individual garlic cloves with a sharp knife; place in a small bowl. Mash with a fork until creamy. Add mayonnaise, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, and cayenne; mix well until blended.
• Refrigerate until flavors combine, at least 1 hour.

FRITES WITH AIOLI

Steps:

• For the aioli: Place the garlic, egg yolk, lemon juice, mustard and water into the cup of an immersion blender. Pour the avocado oil on top of the other ingredients and wait a few moments for the oil to separate from the ingredients beneath it. Gently nestle the blade of the immersion blender into the egg yolk at the bottom of the cup. Turn on the blender and blend until the mixture is fully emulsified, about 1 minute. Add salt to taste. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• For the frites: Fit a large Dutch oven with a deep-frying thermometer and fill with 3 inches of canola oil. Heat the oil to 325 degrees F.
• Dry the potatoes thoroughly with kitchen towels. Working in batches to avoid crowding the pot, slide the potatoes into the hot oil and fry until softened but not colored, 3 to 4 minutes. Using a slotted spoon or metal spider, remove to a paper-towel-lined plate.
• Raise the oil temperature to 350 degrees F. Again working in batches, return the potatoes to the oil and fry until deep golden brown, another 3 to 4 minutes. Drain on a paper-towel-lined tray and season with salt.
• Serve immediately with aioli.

• TO MAKE AIOLI
