Preparation
- Soak the potatoes in a bowl of ice water.
- Pour the oil into a deep fryer and heat to 325°F according to the manufacturers instructions. Line a tray with paper towels.
- Drain and dry the potatoes well. Working in batches, fry the potatoes until just beginning to brown, about 10 minutes. Drain the fries on the paper towel-lined tray for at least 10 minutes or up to 2 hours.
- Reheat the oil to 375°F. Working in batches, fry the potatoes again until golden brown and crisp, about 2 minutes.
- Transfer the fries to a heatproof bowl, add salt, garlic and parsley, and toss to coat the fries.
- Serve immediately.
