How to Make Dirty French Fries?
- First, Turn on the oven to a very hot temperature, 425°F (220°C).
- Get a big bowl and put in some sliced potatoes. Add a little bit of olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix it all up so the potatoes are covered in tasty flavors!
- Now, spread your potato friends on a baking sheet. Make sure they’re in one layer so they get super crunchy when they bake.
- Put them in the hot oven for 30-35 minutes. They’ll turn golden and crispy, so cool! And don’t forget to flip them halfway through.
- When they’re all done, take them out of the oven.
- After your fries come out of the oven and are cool enough to eat, we’re going to add two special toppings, I use in this recipe cheese and bacon.
- Add some melted cheese on top of your fries! Some folks like to sprinkle cheese before baking, so it gets soft on the fries. You can do it that way if you want it more creamy. I just prefer it the way I’ve done it. Also, sprinkle some of the crispy bacon bits for a smoky tasty flavor.
