Ingredients

• 1/2 c. peanut oil, plus more for frying
• 1/4 c. chopped garlic
• 1 (28 oz.) package frozen shoestring French fries
• 2 tsp. salt
• 1/2 c. chopped fresh parsley

Directions

1. Place 1/2 cup peanut oil and garlic in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a low boil, and simmer for 6 minutes or until garlic is brown and crispy. Remove from heat to cool.

2. Pour oil into a large stockpot or Dutch oven, filling halfway. Heat over high heat until a candy or deep-fry thermometer registers 360 degrees. Carefully add fries, in batches, and fry for about 5 minutes, or until crisp and brown. Using a slotted spoon, transfer fries to a rimmed baking sheet.

3. Drizzle with garlic oil, and sprinkle with salt and parsley; toss to coat. Serve immediately.
