Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb (450g) frozen french fries (or homemade fries)
- 1/4 cup hot sauce (such as Louisiana Hot Sauce or Frank’s RedHot)
- 1 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tsp Cajun seasoning (store-bought or homemade)
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or cheese sauce)
- 1/4 cup ranch dressing (optional, for dipping)
- Chopped green onions or parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Bake or fry the french fries according to the package instructions until golden and crispy. For extra crunch, you can double-fry them or air-fry them at 400°F (200°C) for 15-20 minutes, shaking halfway.
- In a small bowl, mix the hot sauce with melted butter for a smoother, richer flavor. Drizzle this mixture generously over the hot fries, tossing lightly to coat them evenly.
- Generously dust the hot sauce-coated fries with Cajun seasoning. Adjust the amount based on your spice preference—more for extra heat, less for a milder taste.
- Top the seasoned fries with shredded cheddar cheese or warm cheese sauce. If using shredded cheese, pop the fries under the broiler for 1-2 minutes to melt the cheese. For extra indulgence, drizzle with ranch dressing and garnish with chopped green onions.
Notes
- Extra Crispy Fries: Soak homemade fries in cold water for 30 minutes before frying to remove excess starch.
- Spice Control: Adjust the hot sauce and Cajun seasoning to your heat tolerance.
- Cheese Options: Use pepper jack for extra spice or queso dip for a smoother texture.
- Make It a Meal: Add grilled chicken or shrimp for a heartier dish.
