1
Prepare the Bread
Take two slices of bread and spread butter on one side of each slice.
2
Add Cheese
Place a slice of cheddar cheese on the unbuttered side of one slice of bread. Top it with the other slice of bread, ensuring the buttered side is facing out.
3
Grill the Sandwich
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place the sandwich in the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes until golden brown. Flip the sandwich and grill the other side until the cheese melts, about another 3-4 minutes.

4
Prepare the Potatoes
Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Cut them into thin strips to form fries.
5
Heat the Oil
In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat to about 350°F (175°C).
6
Fry the Potatoes
Carefully add the potato strips into the hot oil in batches. Fry for about 5-7 minutes or until they turn golden brown, stirring occasionally.
7
Drain and Season
Once the fries are done, use a slotted spoon to remove them from the oil and drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with salt to taste.
