Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).

Wash and peel the potatoes, then cut them into thin strips.

Soak the potato strips in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.

Drain and pat the potatoes dry with a clean towel.

In a large bowl, toss the potato strips with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.

Spread the potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.

While the fries are baking, prepare the aioli by combining garlic, egg yolk, lemon juice, and mustard in a bowl.

Whisk the mixture while slowly drizzling in olive oil until it emulsifies and thickens.

Season the aioli with salt and additional lemon juice to taste.

Serve the baked fries hot with the aioli on the side for dipping.
