List of Ingredients
1 bag frozen French fries - (2 lbs)
1 cup shredded Colby Jack cheese -- see * Note
6 pieces bacon -- cooked
=== DIPPING SAUCE ===
1 bottle ranch dressing - (16 oz)
2 teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon freshly-ground white pepper
1 teaspoon freshly-ground black pepper
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
Recipe
* Note: An excellent suggestion is to use the cheese that is labeled as
"Taco Cheese", cheese for Tacos
Dipping Sauce: Combine all ingredients and chill. Refrigerate overnight
for the best flavor.
Aussie Fries: Divide the fries into half, and use the other half later.
Heat oil to 350 degrees. If you do not have a thermostat, make sure the
oil is hot enough, so that when you set a French fry in there it will cook
immediately. If the French fry sinks to the bottom, and barely bubbles,
it is not hot enough.
Fry the potatoes in small batches, they are done when they are golden
brown, and float to the top of the skillet. (I like to use a Dutch Oven).
Be sure to drain the potatoes on paper towels. You can keep them warm in
the oven while the other fries are done.
When all French fries are done cooking and drained, place them onto a
platter. Salt the French fries if you like, and sprinkle on cheese and
cooked bacon. Pop these back into a warm oven until the cheese begins to
melt.
Serve with the dipping sauce.
