Method

Instructions for Grilled Cheese & Fries

1

Prepare the Fries

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Wash and peel the potatoes, then cut them into thin fries. In a bowl, toss the fries with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until evenly coated. Spread them out on a baking sheet in a single layer.

2

Bake the Fries

Bake the fries in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden and crispy.

3

Prepare the Grilled Cheese

While the fries are baking, heat a skillet over medium heat. Butter one side of each slice of bread.

4

Assemble the Sandwich

Place two slices of bread butter-side down in the skillet. Top each slice with a slice of cheddar cheese, then place the other slices of bread on top, butter-side up.

5

Cook the Grilled Cheese

Cook for about 3-4 minutes until the bottom is golden brown, then carefully flip and cook the other side until golden and the cheese is melted, about another 3-4 minutes.

6

Serve

Once the fries are done, remove them from the oven and serve alongside the grilled cheese sandwiches. Enjoy your meal!
