Louisiana Voodoo Fries (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
01 -
Medium russet potatoes (6).
02 -
2 tablespoons olive oil, extra virgin.
03 -
1-2 tablespoons of Cajun spice mix.
04 -
1/4 cup ranch dressing, plus more for dipping.
05 -
2 tablespoons butter.
06 -
2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour.
07 -
2/3 cup milk.
08 -
Shredded cheddar cheese (2 cups).
# Instructions:
01 -
Peel, wash, and dry the potatoes. Slice into fries about 3/4-inch wide and 3 inches long.
02 -
Steam the fries over low boiling water for 10-12 minutes. They should be tender when pierced with a knife but still firm. Coat gently with the oil.
03 -
Spread out fries in a single layer on a baking tray. Roast in the oven at 450°F for 20-25 minutes, flipping the pan halfway through.
04 -
Warm up the butter until melted, stir in flour and milk until smooth. Mix in the cheese until fully melted and creamy.
05 -
Sprinkle the fries with Cajun seasoning and pour cheese sauce and ranch over the top. Offer extra sauces on the side for dipping.
# Notes:
01 -
Only steam the potatoes until they’re soft enough, but not falling apart.
02 -
Start light with Cajun seasoning, then adjust how much you add based on your liking.
03 -
Keep dipping sauces in separate bowls so fries stay crispy.
