Spicy Dill Pickle Fries

The Dill Fries You Didn't Know You Needed

Ingredients

  • 1 cup pickle brine
  • 1 russet potato, cut into ¼ inch sticks
  • 2 tbsp dill pickle seasoning (I used Bulk Barn's dill pickle popcorn seasoning; check labels to make sure what you're using is vegan friendly.)
  • ¼ tsp chipotle powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tbsp garlic powder
  • oil for frying
  • fresh dill for garnish

Instructions

  1. in a jar, combine potato sticks with pickle brine, making sure the potatoes are completely covered with liquid. Refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight.

  2. Remove potato sticks from brine, and pat dry with paper towel.

  3. Fry in 300℉ oil for 7-10 minutes, until potatoes are soft and cooked through.

  4. Remove fries from oil and let rest on draining rack or paper towel for 30 minutes.

  5. In a small bowl, combine dill pickle seasoning, chipotle powder, smoked paprika and garlic powder, and stir well to combine. Set aside.

  6. Heat oil to 375℉, and fry for 4-5 more minutes, or until golden brown.

  7. Transfer fries from a fryer to a large bowl. Shake a few tsp of seasoning on top, and toss to coat. Taste, and then repeat as necessary until they are seasoned to your liking.

  8. Sprinkle fresh chopped dill on top and serve.
