I think I was craving this while I was making this mixtape pick. For those of you who have never had this tasty treat: It's Fries with an Indonesian peanut butter sauce. In some places Frites, in others it's Patat, but best served in a pointed cone of paper. Messy and a pain, but delicious and worth every bite. If it sounds weird, just get over that and try it. What does it have to do with these songs? Nothing. Although there is a song on here with Dutch lyrics. I can never get the fries to be just right at home. The sauce I have down. So all I can think of is eating this and it's just a few thousand miles away from me (about 5000). If you are in Nederland, just do me a favor and eat one of these today. Send me a picture if you can. I'll live vicariously through you.

Eerst bakken, 150 graden olie tot ze al gaar zijn (nog niet bruin, proeven is de beste methode), af laten koelen, tot ze zo goed als koelkast koud zijn en dan afbakken op 175 graden. rijkelijk bestrooien met zout. Een goede frietaardappel is een iets kruimige, zeker niet vastkokende aardappel van voldoende grootte. Tip mandje niet te vol doen. liever een paar keer vaker bakken.
ReplyDeleteMayonaise is ook heel lekker, en de beste mayo is ZONDER zoetigheid. Ei Olie Azijn Mosterd.

I'm not much of a mayonnaise fan, but mustard is good and the best for me is the pindasaus. The key to cooking them is the double frying
DeleteIn addition to Richard's comment, which is spot on, you can also put your fries "en vapeur" first, until they are al dente, and then fry them as mentioned above. Takes your fries to another dimension! And cut them a wee bit thicker, for that extra bite hhh. And try fries with stew over them, delicious! Grtz.
DeleteNever tried steaming fries first....
DeleteTriple fries they are called. absolutely right Ja-Mike, "my" frieten are pinky size, "yours" are thumb size or slightly thicker, And Fries with Stew is classic. And if you want it as a whole meal, it is more stew than sauce and served with Witlof-salad. (and some drink a Trappist with it)
