Steps:
- Using a vegetable peeler or paring knife, peel middle of each potato.
- Place potatoes and salt in a large saucepan, and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil over high heat; reduce heat to medium-low. Cook until a fork inserted into center of potatoes meets only slight resistance, about 20 minutes.
- Drain potatoes in a colander; return to warm saucepan. Toss with butter and parsley, and season with pepper. Transfer to a serving dish; serve immediately.
Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Waxy potatoes like Yukon Gold or fingerling potatoes are best for this recipe, as they hold their shape well during frying.
- Cut the potatoes into even-sized pieces: This will help them cook evenly.
- Soak the potatoes in cold water for at least 30 minutes: This will help to remove excess starch and prevent the potatoes from sticking together.
- Dry the potatoes thoroughly before frying: This will help them to crisp up.
- Use a deep fryer or a large saucepan filled with oil: The oil should be at least 3 inches deep.
- Heat the oil to the correct temperature: The ideal temperature for frying pommes de terre à la parisienne is 350°F (175°C).
- Fry the potatoes in batches: Do not overcrowd the pan, or the potatoes will not cook evenly.
- Fry the potatoes until they are golden brown and crispy: This will take about 3-4 minutes.
- Drain the potatoes on paper towels: This will help to remove excess oil.
- Sprinkle the potatoes with parsley and salt: Serve immediately.
