Ingredients
- 4 potatoes
Seasoning
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp peri peri masala
- 1 tsp chilli powder
- salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tsp cheese powder
Cheese Sauce
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup cream
- 3-4 slices processed cheese
- 1/4 cup cheddar, grated
- 1 tbsp cheese powder
- 1 tsp cornstarch
- salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions:
- Peel the potatoes and cut them using a regular knife or a crinkle cutter, depending on the shape you prefer. I went with a crinkle cut for extra texture.
- Add the sliced potatoes to a bowl of ice cold water and let them soak for 30 minutes. This step helps remove excess surface starch, which gives you a crispier fries.
- Drain the potatoes well and spread them out on a kitchen towel or paper towel and pat them completely dry.
- Toss the dried potatoes with a light coating of cornflour. This creates a thin outer layer that turns beautifully crisp when fried.
- Heat oil in a pan and fry the potatoes on medium heat, low and slow till they turn golden and crisp.
- Remove the fries and drain them on paper towels. While they’re still hot, transfer them to a bowl and toss with the seasonings. Serve immediately with the cheese dip.
- For the cheesy dip: In a pan, gently heat some cream and milk on low heat. Add a few slices of processed cheese and grated cheddar (optional but recommended for flavour). My secret ingredient: add 1 tablespoon of cheese powder for that classic store bought cheesy flavour. Optionally, mix in some cornflour to help thicken the sauce. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
- Cook on very low heat, mixing continuously until smooth and thickened into a glossy cheese sauce. Do not increase the heat or the mixture may split. Serve the fries with the cooled (or warm) cheese sauce and enjoyy!
