Healthy Truffle Fries & Aioli
These Healthy Truffle Fries put a unique spin on an old classic! I admit, I am a health nut who loves truffle fries. So I had to figure out a way to make them guilt free at home. And I think I succeeded. 😉 These fries are baked until golden and crispy. Then topped with truffle oil, parsley and fresh parmesan (optional). Enjoy them with some garlic aioli and you have the perfect side dish for any meal.
What Are The Ingredients in Truffle Fries?
Yukon Gold Potatoes: The fries for this recipe are made out of Yukon Gold potatoes. I’ve tried many different potatoes and have found that Yukon gold makes the best french fries. Simply toss the sliced potatoes with some olive oil, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Roast them for about 20 minutes. And you have a delicious and nutritious french fry.

Olive Oil:
Truffle Oil:

How To Make Healthy Truffle Fries & Aioli
Step 1: Chop the potatoes into very thin fry shaped slices.
Step 2: Soak the potatoes in cold water for 15-30 minutes. This removes excess starch and helps the potatoes cook more evenly. But this step is optional if you are in a pinch for time.
Step 3: Toss the potatoes in a bowl with the olive oil, garlic, ground sea salt and pepper.
Step 4: Then spread the potatoes in a flat even layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the oven at 425F for about 20-25 minutes or until crispy and golden brown.
Step 5: Remove from the oven and top with truffle oil and fresh grated parmesan cheese.
