Fries

Toppings

Method

Preparing the Fries

  1. 1

    Preheat Oil

    In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 180°C (350°F).

  2. 2

    Cook Fries

    Add the frozen French fries to the hot oil, working in batches if necessary, and fry until they are golden brown and crispy, about 4-6 minutes.

  3. 3

    Drain Fries

    Using a slotted spoon, remove the fries from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil. Season with salt if desired.

Preparing the Toppings

  1. 4

    Cook Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until it is crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the skillet and let it drain on paper towels. Once cooled, chop into small pieces.

  2. 5

    Melt Cheese

    In a microwave-safe bowl, add the shredded cheddar cheese. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until the cheese is fully melted and smooth.

  3. 6

    Chop Green Onions

    While the cheese is melting, chop the green onions and set them aside.

Assembling the Dish

  1. 7

    Layer Fries

    On a large serving platter, layer the crispy fries evenly.

  2. 8

    Add Toppings

    Sprinkle the chopped bacon over the fries, followed by the melted cheddar cheese. Top with chopped green onions.

  3. 9

    Serve

    Drizzle sour cream and hot sauce over the dish to taste. Serve immediately while hot.
