Ingredients

For the Fries

4 large russet potatoes (about 1.5 lbs) Wash and peel before cutting.
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil For coating the fries.
2 tbsp Cajun seasoning Adjust to taste.

Toppings

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese Top fries immediately after frying for melting.
1/2 cup sour cream For drizzling.
1/4 cup chopped green onions For garnish.
to taste Hot sauce For extra heat.

Instructions

Preparation

Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Cut them into thick strips.
Soak the cut fries in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.
Drain and thoroughly dry the fries using paper towels. Toss with olive oil and Cajun seasoning until evenly coated.

Cooking

Heat oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C). Fry the potatoes in batches for about 4-5 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
Transfer hot fries to a serving platter; immediately top with shredded cheddar cheese to melt.

Serving

Drizzle with sour cream, sprinkle with green onions, and add hot sauce as desired.

Notes

If you have leftovers, place the fries in an airtight container once they cool down and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, warm them in the oven for crispiness.
