Pommes Frites
- Start warming up the oil to fry by adding it to a large heavy pot or fryer to 375°F (you can test the oil by adding a french fry and if it immediately sizzles, it’s ready).
- Make the pomme frites seasoning by mixing the garlic, cajun seasoning, Parmesan cheese, and parsley in large mixing bowl. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, make the batter by mixing the flour, water, garlic salt, and salt. This batter should be runny.
- In batches, dip frozen french fries into the batter just to coat, letting excess run off.
- Fry battered french fries until golden brown (about 4-5 minutes). Transfer french fries to a paper towel-lined plate for a few seconds and then toss in the cheese mixture and stir to coat.
- Transfer fries to a serving dish lined with parchment paper and serve hot with remoulade.
