Ingredients
French Fries
- 32 oz french fries (pre-cut, frozen)
Feta Yogurt Sauce
- 4 oz feta cheese, crumbled
- 1 cup plain yogurt
- ½ cup sour cream
- 1 large garlic clove, minced
- 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon freshly chopped parsley
- 1 tbsp freshly chopped dill
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- Salt to taste
Instructions
- Bake the Fries: Preheat your oven and bake the french fries according to the package directions, opting for the longer cook time to achieve crispy, golden fries. This extra crispiness prevents sogginess once the sauce is added.
- Prepare the Feta Yogurt Sauce: While the fries are baking, combine crumbled feta cheese, plain yogurt, sour cream, minced garlic, lemon juice, chopped parsley, dill, dried oregano, and salt in a medium bowl. Stir well and set aside; allowing it to sit will enhance the flavors, so it can be made ahead of time or even a day prior.
- Salt the Fries: Once the fries are baked and crispy, remove them from the oven and immediately sprinkle salt over them so it adheres well for seasoning.
- Assemble and Serve: Transfer the fries to a serving platter or large bowl. Using a spoon or ladle, drizzle the prepared feta yogurt sauce evenly over the fries. Garnish with additional fresh herbs and crumbled feta cheese as desired before serving.
Notes
- For best results, bake fries longer than the minimum package time to ensure crispiness.
- The feta yogurt sauce can be made hours or a day in advance to deepen the flavors.
- Adjust salt to your preference after baking as the sauce adds tanginess and saltiness.
- Feel free to garnish with extra fresh herbs like parsley, dill, or oregano for color and freshness.
