We may not be able to tailgate like we are used to but that doesn’t mean we have to miss out on all of the great food! Try these amazing Vegas fries from home during your next Raiders game. You will not be sorry. Tailgating lockdown style!
- 14 ounces hand-cut French fries, fried extra crispy (fry three times until golden)
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- 1 pinch kosher salt
- 2 ounces buffalo sauce (recommend Frank’s RedHot)
- 1 teaspoon grated Parmesan
- 1 pinch chopped flat leaf parsley
- 1/4 cup Bleu-Sabi Dipping Sauce (recipe follows)
For Bleu-Sabi Dipping Sauce
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1/2 tablespoon white wine vinegar
- 1/8 tablespoon ground black pepper
- 1/8 tablespoon kosher salt
- 1/8 tablespoon Tabasco
- Pinch granulated garlic
- 1/2 tablespoon Worcestershire
- 2.5 ounces blue cheese crumbles
- 1/4 cup buttermilk
- 2 tablespoons wasabi powder
Drain and pat fries dry. Blanch French fries in a large pot of 325- 350F oil for 5 minutes to cook without color. Drain on a rack and allow to cool to room temperature.
Increase temp of oil to 375F and return fries to fryer. Cook 5 minutes to crisp. Drain and cool on a rack once more. Once fries are room temperature again, put back in oil for the final frying. Fry until golden brown and extra-crispy, 3-5 minutes then drain and dump directly into a large metal bowl.
Toss hot, extra-crispy fries in salt and buffalo sauce to coat evenly. Serve in a paper cone and top with grated parmesan and chopped parsley. Serve with bleu-sabi dressing on the side.
For Bleu-Sabi Dipping Sauce: Mix together well in a food processor or with a whisk.
