Loaded Bacon Cheese Fries (Print Version)
Golden fries topped with cheddar, mozzarella, smoky bacon, and fresh parsley for a cheesy, crunchy treat.
# What You'll Need:
→ Potatoes
01 -
500 grams frozen potato fries
→ Cheeses
02 -
100 grams shredded sharp cheddar cheese
03 -
100 grams shredded mozzarella cheese
→ Meats
04 -
150 grams thick-cut smoked bacon, cooked and chopped
→ Herbs
05 -
15 grams fresh parsley, finely chopped
# Steps to Follow:
01 -
Cook the potato fries according to package instructions by deep-frying or baking until crispy and golden brown.
02 -
Spread the hot fries evenly on a parchment-lined baking tray ensuring they are not crowded to allow uniform melting of cheese.
03 -
Sprinkle shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses evenly over the fries followed by an even layer of crispy chopped smoked bacon.
04 -
Place the tray under a preheated broiler for 3 to 5 minutes until the cheese is fully melted and bubbling, watching closely to prevent burning.
05 -
Scatter finely chopped fresh parsley over the hot fries and serve immediately to enjoy the optimal texture and flavor.
# Additional Notes:
01 -
Serve immediately after broiling to maintain crispy fries and gooey cheese texture.
02 -
Reheat leftovers in an oven or toaster oven to preserve crispiness and melt cheese again.
03 -
For variation, substitute cheddar with Monterey Jack or Colby; turkey bacon or pancetta works as bacon alternatives.
