2 Fresh
Thyme Sprigs
1 Lg
Rosemary Sprig, Cut into pieces
2 Cloves
Garlic, quartered
2 Lg
Egg yolks
1 TBS
Red Wine Vinegar
1 tsp
Dijon Mustard
1 Cup
Grapeseed oil
1 TBSP
Water, Optional
1 TBSP

1/2 tsp

3 TBS

1 clove
Garlic, Ground FOR THE AIOLI
Step by Step Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F. Place a heavy large baking sheet in the oven until it is hot.
- Using a sharp chef knife, trim the potatoes to form rectangles. If desired, save any trimmings for another dish, such as for mashed potatoes. Cut the potatoes into fries that are 3/4-inch thick and 3 to 4 inches in length.
- Place the potatoes in lemon water until cooking to prevent them from browning.
- Drain the water from the potatoes and place the potatoes on a large baking sheet lined with paper towels. Using paper towels, pat the potatoes until they are dry.
- Toss the cut potatoes, thyme, rosemary, garlic, and smoked paprika with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large bowl to coat the potatoes. Season with salt and pepper. Line the preheated baking sheet with a silicone baking mat. Arrange the potatoes in a single layer on the mat.
- Roast the potatoes for 8 minutes. Remove the fries from the oven and turn them over as needed so that they brown evenly.
- Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and return the fries to the oven and continue roasting until golden brown and tender, about 8 minutes.
- Meanwhile, finely chop the garlic clove in a food processor. Add the yolks, red wine vinegar, and Dijon mustard and blend until smooth and fluffy, about 1 minute.
- With the machine running, slowly add the oil in a thin steady stream until the aïoli is thick and creamy. If the mixture is too thick, add a little water to thin it to the desired consistency.
- Stir in the parsley. Season the aïoli to taste with salt and pepper.
- Remove the fries from the oven and lay the fries on another baking sheet lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil; discard the thyme stems, rosemary, and garlic.
- Serve the fries with the aïoli and enjoy
