Method
Preparing the Fries
Cut and Soak Potatoes
Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Cut them into fries, about 1/4 inch thick. Soak the fries in cold water for at least 30 minutes to remove excess starch.
Heat Oil
In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Fry Potatoes
Drain the fries and pat them dry with paper towels. Fry the potatoes in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 4-5 minutes per batch. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with salt while they are still hot.
Making the Jarocho Sauce
Combine Ingredients
In a medium bowl, combine mayo, sour cream, chipotle peppers, lime juice, garlic powder, cumin, and salt. Mix well until smooth.
Add Cilantro
Fold in the chopped cilantro into the sauce. Adjust seasoning with additional salt, if necessary.
Assembling the Fries
Plate the Fries
On a serving platter, arrange the hot fries in a single layer.
Drizzle Sauce
Generously drizzle the Jarocho sauce over the fries.
Add Toppings
Sprinkle crumbled Cotija cheese, pickled jalapeños, and chopped green onions over the sauced fries. Serve immediately.
