Ingredients
Scale
Fries
- 26 ounces frozen French fries
Cheese Sauce
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 cups milk
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
- 2 teaspoons ranch seasoning powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne powder (divided)
- 8 ounces white cheddar cheese, shredded
Instructions
- Preheat: Preheat your oven or air fryer to 400°F to prepare for cooking the fries.
- Cook Fries: Arrange frozen fries in a single layer on a baking sheet or air fryer basket. Bake according to package instructions until golden brown and crispy, typically about 20 minutes.
- Make Roux: In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and whisk in the flour until fully combined. Cook the mixture for about 2 minutes to form a roux.
- Add Milk and Seasonings: Gradually whisk in the milk to avoid lumps. Stir in salt, ground white pepper, ranch seasoning powder, and half of the cayenne powder, mixing well to combine.
- Thicken Sauce: Lower the heat to medium-low and cook the sauce, stirring frequently, until it thickens, about 5 minutes.
- Melt Cheese: Stir in the shredded white cheddar cheese until it melts completely, forming a creamy cheese sauce.
- Combine: Pour the cheese sauce evenly over the cooked fries. Sprinkle the remaining cayenne powder on top if desired for extra heat.
- Serve: Serve the Louisiana Voodoo Fries warm as a spicy, cheesy appetizer or snack.
Notes
- Using an air fryer can reduce cook time and result in extra crispy fries.
- Adjust cayenne powder for your preferred spice level.
- For a richer sauce, use whole milk or add a splash of heavy cream.
- This recipe pairs well with dipping sauces like ranch or hot sauce.
