  • Cut potatoes to desired size, but not too thick. Try to ensure fries are as close to the same size as possible.
  • Place fries into a microwave-safe container and microwave for 4 minutes.
  • Place oil into a frying pan and heat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Place 1 to 2 handfuls of fries in the frying pan and fry until browned and soft, 4 to 5 minutes, turning and tossing frequently to cook evenly.
  • Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F (110 degrees C).
  • Drain fries in a bowl lined with a paper towel. Toss fries in the bowl to get rid of excess oil; remove paper towel.
  • Combine cilantro, Parmesan cheese, garlic, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Toss fries in the mixture until well mixed. Drizzle fries with truffle oil and toss again until well mixed. Transfer fries to an oven-safe container.
  • Bake in the preheated oven to allow truffle oil to settle and reheat fries, 5 to 7 minutes. Serve fries while hot.
