Ingredients
- 4 large Russet potatoes
- 4 cups Vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup Mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup Mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons Ketchup
- 1 tablespoon Sriracha sauce
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Peel the russet potatoes and cut them into thin strips for fries. Soak the cut potatoes in cold water for 15 minutes to remove excess starch.
Step 2
Drain the soaked potatoes and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel to remove excess moisture.
Step 3
Heat vegetable oil in a large frying pan or deep fryer to 350°F (175°C).
Step 4
Working in batches, fry the potatoes for 3-4 minutes until they are just cooked but not browned. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Step 5
Increase the oil temperature to 375°F (190°C) and fry the par-cooked fries again in batches for 2-3 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels, then season with salt.
Step 6
While the fries are cooking, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 7
Spread the hot fries on a baking sheet and evenly sprinkle shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses over the fries. Place the baking sheet in the oven for 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Step 8
To make the ultimate dipping sauce, combine mayonnaise, ketchup, sriracha sauce, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, paprika, and black pepper in a mixing bowl. Stir until smooth and well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Step 9
Transfer the cheesy fries to a serving platter and serve immediately with the prepared dipping sauce on the side.
