  1. Place the egg, egg yolk, Dijon mustard, garlic, salt, and pepper in a food processor fitted with a metal blade and process until well blended.

  6. When ready to serve, heat oil to 350 to 375 degrees F.
  7. In small batches fry blanched potatoes for 2 to 3 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Drain well, and toss in mixing bowl with chopped parsley and salt and pepper.
