Crispy Stacked Potatoes are thinly sliced and stacked russet potatoes, deep-fried to a golden crisp and tossed with a flavorful blend of olive oil, garlic, parmesan, and herbs. This recipe results in crunchy, bite-sized potato squares that are perfect as a savory side dish or an impressive snack.

Ingredients

Scale

Potatoes

  • 4 potatoes (russet or similar)

Frying Oil

  • Canola oil (for deep frying, enough to fill a couple inches in Dutch oven)

Seasoning & Toppings

  • 2 Tablespoons olive oil
  • ½ Teaspoon salt
  • ½ Teaspoon oregano
  • 1 Teaspoon garlic powder
  • 3 Tablespoons parmesan cheese (freshly grated)
  • 3 Cloves garlic (freshly minced)
  • 2 Tablespoons parsley (freshly chopped)

Instructions

  1. Heat the oil: Heat a couple of inches of canola oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat to reach 325 degrees F, preparing for deep frying the potatoes.
  2. Peel the potatoes: Peel the potatoes thoroughly and discard the peelings to ensure a clean texture in the final dish.
  3. Slice the potatoes: Use a mandoline slicer to cut the potatoes into very thin slices, then stack about 10 slices together to form each stack.
  4. Trim and cut: Cut off the rounded edges of the potato stacks to shape them into neat rectangles. Then slice each rectangular stack into ½-inch squares for even frying.
  5. Deep-fry the stacks: Carefully add the potato stacks into the hot oil. Fry them for approximately 7 minutes, or until they turn golden brown and achieve a crunchy texture.
  6. Remove and drain: Use a slotted spoon to transfer the fried potato squares to a large mixing bowl, allowing excess oil to drain off.
  7. Toss with seasoning: Immediately toss the hot potatoes with olive oil, salt, oregano, garlic powder, freshly minced garlic, chopped parsley, and freshly grated parmesan cheese to evenly coat and enhance flavor.
  8. Serve: Serve the crispy stacked potatoes hot for the best texture and taste.

Notes

  • Ensure oil temperature is maintained at 325°F during frying for optimal crispiness without burning.
  • Use a mandoline slicer for consistent thin slices to ensure even cooking.
  • Can substitute parmesan with a vegetarian-friendly cheese if desired.
  • For a milder garlic flavor, reduce the amount of fresh garlic or substitute with garlic powder only.
  • These potatoes are best enjoyed fresh to retain their crispiness.
