Cheese Fries Ingredients

Method

Cheese Fries Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Fries

    Preheat your oven according to the instructions on the frozen French fries packaging. Spread the frozen fries on a baking sheet and toss them with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Bake the Fries

    Bake the fries in the preheated oven for the time specified on the packaging, usually around 20-25 minutes, until they are golden and crispy.

  3. 3

    Add Cheese

    Remove the fries from the oven and sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top. Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

  4. 4

    Garnish and Serve

    Once the cheese is melted, remove the fries from the oven. Garnish with chopped parsley and sliced green onions. Serve with sour cream on the side for dipping.
