Ingredients

For the Fries

  • 32 oz frozen pre-cut French fries
  • Salt, to taste

For the Feta Yogurt Sauce

  • 4 oz feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1 cup plain yogurt
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 1 large garlic clove, minced
  • 2 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp freshly chopped parsley
  • 1 tbsp freshly chopped dill
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • Salt, to taste

Instructions

  1. Bake the Fries: Bake your frozen French fries according to package directions, but opt for the longer suggested cooking time to ensure they become golden brown and extra crispy. This helps prevent sogginess once the sauce is added.
  2. Prepare the Feta Yogurt Sauce: While the fries bake, combine the crumbled feta cheese, plain yogurt, sour cream, minced garlic, lemon juice, chopped parsley, chopped dill, dried oregano, and salt in a medium bowl. Mix thoroughly and set aside. For best flavor, let this sauce sit for at least several minutes or prepare it hours to a day in advance.
  3. Salt the Fries: Once the fries are done baking, remove them from the oven and immediately sprinkle salt over them so it adheres well.
  4. Assemble: Place the salted fries on a serving platter or in a large bowl. Drizzle the prepared feta yogurt sauce generously over the top using a spoon or ladle.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Optionally, garnish with extra crumbled feta and fresh herbs such as parsley or dill to enhance both presentation and flavor. Serve immediately while fries are warm and crispy.

Notes

  • Using frozen pre-cut fries saves time and ensures consistent crispiness.
  • The longer the feta yogurt sauce rests, the more the flavors meld and develop.
  • Adjust salt amount according to taste and dietary preferences.
  • You can prepare the sauce a day in advance and refrigerate it to deepen the flavor.
  • Serve as a side dish or a flavorful snack/appetizer.
