Fries and Toppings
Method
Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Potatoes
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Wash and peel the russet potatoes, then cut them into fries. Soak the cut fries in cold water for 30 minutes to remove excess starch.

Season the Fries
Drain and pat the fries dry with paper towels. Toss the fries in a large bowl with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
- 3
Bake the Fries
Spread the fries 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.

Add Cheese and Green Onions
Remove the fries from the oven and sprinkle the shredded sharp cheddar cheese and chopped green onions evenly over the top. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes until the cheese is melted.

Remove from the oven, and serve immediately with sour cream on the side for dipping.
