1
Prepare the Fries
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Cut the potatoes into thin strips and soak them in cold water for 30 minutes. Drain and pat dry.
2
Season the Fries
In a large bowl, toss the potato strips with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
3
Bake the Fries
Spread the seasoned fries in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.
4
Make the Cheese Sauce
In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute until bubbly. Gradually add the milk, whisking continuously until smooth and thickened.
5
Add Cheese
Remove from heat and stir in the cheddar cheese, cream cheese, and hot sauce until melted and creamy.
6
Assemble
Once the fries are done, transfer them to a serving platter and generously drizzle the cheese sauce over the top. Serve immediately.
