# How to Make It:
01 -
Peel the russet potatoes and chop them into thin fries. Rinse well under cool water to take out extra starch and then dry completely with paper towels.
02 -
In a big bowl, mix all-purpose flour, Cajun seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper if you want it spicier.
03 -
Dip the fries into the buttermilk, making sure they're fully coated. Then roll them in the flour mix until they're covered evenly.
04 -
Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot or deep fryer to 175°C. Fry the coated fries in small portions for about 4–5 minutes, until they turn golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to take the fries out and place them on paper towels to drain.
05 -
While the fries are still hot, top them right away with shredded cheddar cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, crumbled bacon, sliced jalapeños, and green onions.
06 -
Serve them hot, letting the cheese melt over the fries. You can also drizzle ranch dressing or your favorite dipping sauce if you like.
# Extra Information:
01 -
For an extra kick, use more cayenne pepper or splash on some hot sauce before serving. You can bake the fries instead of frying them for a lighter version, but they won't be as crispy. You can also make the fries ahead and warm them up in the oven to melt the cheese again.
