Notes From the Method

Dry the potatoes well so the oil sticks and they crisp.

Add the garlic after baking so it does not burn.

Taste before salting; the parmesan is salty.

Common Substitutions & Variations

• An eighth of a teaspoon of garlic powder per clove is the usual stand-in when you are out of fresh garlic — it will not caramelise the same way, but it carries the flavour.

Keeping What's Left

Best eaten straight away. Leftover fries can be crisped on a tray at 220°C for 8 minutes.
