Nothing goes better with a juicy burger than a pile of hot, crispy, perfectly golden French fries. Unless, of course, you happen to have Chef Liam’s recipe for homemade fries with pecorino, garlic and oregano. Those might top the list.

3 each russet potatoes, large 2 T chopped fresh oregano 1 T chopped fresh garlic 2 T fresh grated Pecorino Romano Fryer oil, or canola oil Salt and pepper to taste
|
DIRECTIONS
–Wash potatoes, keep skin on. Square off the potato by cutting it to form four sides. Proceed to cut ½ inch slices then cut into strips. –Place a colander in a bowl. Place fries in the colander and run cold water continuously(it will fill up with water) over the fries till the water starts to run clear. This is removing any starchy sugars. -Strain the potatoes. Meanwhile, heat oil in a deep saucepan for frying to 300F. Add strained potatoes to the fryer and cook for about 3 minutes. Remove from fryer and place on sheet tray and let cool. -Heat fryer up to 375…Then fry the fries again. Cook till crispy. Put in a bowl with the herbs, garlic, cheese and salt and pepper and toss. Serve immediately.
