These are pretty much “no guilt fries”
and they aren’t really “fries” at all because they are roasted
they just have the same shape as fries!
load on the lemon zest for some zing
and lots of shredded Parmesan ain’t bad either!
drizzle with some olive oil and season with salt and pepper
The parmesan forms a crispy Frico crust
you can serve them as an appetizer or a side dish
Lemon aoli is a nice dipping sauce
but they are pretty tasty without it too!
Either way, they will make your day!

Lemon Aioli
- Melt butter in the microwave in a measuring cup. Let cool 1 minute then whisk in mayo with a fork until smooth and creamy.
- At this point taste and decide if the sauce is too thin, too thick or just right. Add more melted butter or lemon if too thick, more mayo if too thin and more seasoning if necessary. Garnish with lemon zest.
