Ingredients
- 2 large russet potatoes, cut into thin fries
- 2 tablespoons truffle oil
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper to taste

- Mini cups for serving
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
