- In a microwave safe bowl , melt the butter in the microwave. Add in the garlic, Parmesan and Italian seasoning to the butter and mix to combine. Set that aside.
- Remove the potatoes from the ice water bath and pat dry. Sprinkle cornstarch over the dried potatoes and mix the potatoes around with your hands to coat them all.
- Heat the oil in the frying pan up to medium high heat. When the first fry starts sizzling when you dip it in the oil to test, you can place all the cut potatoes in.
- Cook and stir around every couple minutes for a total of 7 minutes or until the fries have become a beautiful golden brown color.

Notes
The use of cornstarch gives the fries a golden brown color and makes them really crunchy on the outside
