Robbys Drydock Fries Recipes

DUCK FAT FRIES

Steps:

• Peel the sides of the potatoes but leave some skin on the ends. As you peel, place the potatoes in a bowl filled with cool water. Cut the potatoes into matchsticks (1/8-inch square) and place back into the bowl of clean cool water. Allow the potatoes to sit for 1 hour, changing the water as it becomes cloudy to remove the starch.
• Heat the canola oil in a large, heavy Dutch oven or deep skillet to 325 degrees F.
• Drain the potatoes and dry well with paper towels. Carefully add the potatoes to the oil, in batches if necessary, and cook until they just lose their opaque look and are starting to firm up, 5 to 6 minutes. Drain well on paper towels.
• Heat the duck fat in a heavy saucepan to 375 degrees F; ideally you want the duck fat 3 to 4 inches deep.
• Carefully add the fries to the duck fat and cook until crispy and evenly golden, about 8 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate and season with the sea salt or truffle salt.
• Cook's Note: Strain the duck fat through a fine mesh strainer and transfer to a glass container. Keep refrigerated or frozen for up to 6 months.

ROBBY'S DRYDOCK FRIES

Steps:

• You can always use frozen potatoes (baked), canned beef gravy (heated), and canned cheese sauce (heated) but it will be much better if you don't go that route and actually use the home-made stuff.
• To assemble: Place steak fries on an oblong plate, cover with beef gravy (it's even better if there are bits of beef thrown in) and cheese sauce.
• Give everyone a fork and knife and let them eat right off the platter. It's great fun! (:.

CAST IRON HOME FRIES

Steps:

• Heat grill to high. Brush potatoes halves, onion slices, peppers, and chiles with oil and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Grill potatoes and onions for 2 to 3 minutes per side or until just cooked through and slightly charred. Remove from heat, cut each potato half in half again, and finely chop the onions.
• Grill peppers and chiles until charred on all sides. Remove from the grill, place in a bowl, cover, and let steam for 5 minutes. Remove skin and finely dice.
• Melt butter in a 9-inch cast iron skillet on the grates of the grill. Add the potatoes, onions, peppers, and chiles all in 1 layer and pack down. Cook until crisp and nicely browned.

OLD BAY® FRIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Toss French fries and oil together in a large bowl. Add 2 tablespoons seafood seasoning and toss to coat. Place on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until crispy, 35 to 45 minutes.
• While fries are baking, make the cheese sauce by combining milk and seafood seasoning in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over low heat. Add cheese when milk begins to steam and little bubbles begin to form around the edges. Stir gently and frequently until all cheese is melted. Serve immediately on the side as a dipping sauce with hot fries.

AIR FRYER FROZEN FRENCH FRIES

Steps:

• Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

• Cut sausage into equal sized links, approximately 3" each.
• Place sausage and bay leaves into a sterilized gallon size glass jar.

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Put potatoes in boiling water and boil for 3 minutes. Rinse potatoes off in a colander with cold water. Dry potatoes with paper towels and set aside.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F. When oven lets you know you are at the correct temperature, combine paprika, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, flour and egg substitute in a small bowl. Add in milk and mix well.
• Pour fries into a large bowl and add seasoning mixture. Mix well. Dump fries onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and spread around evenly (so they aren't overlapping).
