Fries
Smoked Gouda Cheese Sauce
Method
Fries
Prepare the Potatoes
Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Cut them into thin strips to form fries.
Fry the Potatoes
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep fryer or a heavy-bottomed pot to 350°F (175°C). Carefully add the potato strips in batches and fry until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Season the Fries
While the fries are still hot, season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Smoked Gouda Cheese Sauce
Add Milk
Gradually whisk in the milk, ensuring there are no lumps. Continue to cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens, about 3-5 minutes.
Add Cheese and Spices
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the shredded smoked Gouda cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and salt. Mix until the cheese is fully melted and the sauce is smooth.
