Fry the Potato Medallions
Carefully add the potato medallions to the hot oil in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for about 4-5 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with salt immediately while hot.

Melt the Cheese
Place the platter under a broiler for 2-3 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Keep a close eye to prevent burning.
