Cheese fries are always an automatic yes! Here is how to make these. Fries • 8 russet potatoes, sliced into fries • 1/2 cup cornstarch • 2 teaspoons salt, plus more for topping • Oil for frying Cheese Sauce • 2 tablespoons salted butter • 2 tablespoons flour • 1 1/2 cups whole milk • 8 ounces Velveeta cheese, cubed • 2 ounces cheddar cheese, shredded • Pinch of cayenne pepper Quick Salsa • 3 tomatoes, diced • 1/2 red onion, finely chopped • Juice of 1 lime • Handful of chopped cilantro • Salt Additional Ingredients • 1 pound taco meat, cooked • Sour cream Instructions Place the cut potatoes in a large bowl and cover with cold water. Let soak for 30 minutes. Drain, then transfer to a pot of boiling water and boil for 5 minutes. Drain again and spread the potatoes onto a paper towel lined baking sheet. Let cool completely, then pat dry to remove all moisture. In a large bowl, combine the cornstarch and salt. Add the potatoes in batches, tossing gently to coat each fry in a light layer of the mixture. Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat. Fry the potatoes in batches for about 10 minutes. Remove to a paper towel lined plate. Increase the heat to high and allow the oil to come back up to temperature. Fry the potatoes again for 2-3 minutes, or until golden and crispy. Place on a plate and immediately sprinkle with additional salt. For the cheese sauce, melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1 minute. Slowly whisk in the milk and cook until thickened. Reduce heat to low, add the velveeta, cheddar, and cayenne, and stir until smooth and fully melted. Remove from heat. For the salsa, combine the tomatoes, red onion, lime juice, cilantro, and salt in a bowl. Mix well. To serve, pile the crispy fries onto a plate. Top with cheese sauce, taco meat, more cheese sauce, fresh salsa, and sour cream. This recipe serves 4.
