French Fries all’Assassina (Assassin’s French Fries)

ADVERTISEMENT

introduction

French fries all’assassina, or assassin’s French fries, are inspired by one of Italy’s most unusual and delicious pasta recipes, spaghetti all’assassina. Intensely savory from caramelized tomato paste and cheese, with a sweet and sour note followed by a building, spicy heat from cayenne and pepper flakes, these fries are the complete opposite of one-note.

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, finely crushed or minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons red pepper flakes
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 16 ounces frozen crinkle cut French fries
  • 2 ounces Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh Italian parsley (optional)
