Step 1
Cut potatoes into 0.25-inch thick fries. Soak in cold water for 30 minutes to remove excess starch.
Step 2
Heat 3 tbsp olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook for 2-3 minutes until fragrant and light golden. Set aside.
Step 3
Heat vegetable oil to 350°F in a heavy-bottomed pot or deep fryer.
Step 4
Drain potatoes and pat dry with paper towels. Working in batches, fry potatoes for 4-5 minutes until light golden. Remove to paper towels.
Step 5
Increase oil temperature to 375°F. Fry potatoes again for 2-3 minutes until deep golden and crispy. Drain on paper towels.
Step 6
Transfer hot fries to a large bowl. Add roasted garlic with its oil, salt, and pepper. Toss gently.
Step 7
Add fresh parsley and Parmesan cheese. Toss again until evenly coated. Serve immediately while hot.
