Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Fries

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Cut the russet potatoes into thin strips to create fries. Toss the potato strips in a bowl with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.

  2. 2

    Bake the Fries

    Spread the coated fries in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake for about 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden and crispy.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Grilled Cheese

    While the fries are baking, heat a skillet over medium heat. Butter one side of each slice of sourdough bread. Place two slices, butter side down, in the skillet.

  4. 4

    Add the Cheese

    Layer the sharp cheddar and Gruyère cheese on top of the bread in the skillet. Place the remaining slices of bread on top, butter side up.

  5. 5

    Grill the Sandwich

    Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted. You can press the sandwich slightly with a spatula to help it cook evenly.

  6. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Once the grilled cheese is done, remove it from the skillet, and sprinkle with garlic powder and chopped parsley. Serve hot alongside the crispy fries.
