Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 lbs Russet potatoes scrubbed and cut into 1/4-inch fries
  • 2 tbsp Olive oil
  • 1 tbsp Cajun seasoning plus more for the sauce
  • 1 tsp Salt to taste
  • 1/2 tsp Black pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup Mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup Sour cream
  • 1/4 cup Buttermilk more if needed
  • 1 packet Ranch seasoning mix 1 oz size
  • 1/2 tsp Cajun seasoning
  • 1 cup Sharp cheddar cheese shredded
  • 1/3 cup Evaporated milk
  • 1/4 cup Green onions chopped

Equipment

  • 1 Baking sheet
  • 2 Mixing Bowls
  • 1 Saucepan

Instructions
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Cut potatoes into ¼-inch sticks. For extra crispy fries, soak them in cold water for 30 minutes, then drain and pat completely dry.
  2. In a large bowl, toss the potato sticks with olive oil, Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper until they are evenly coated.
  3. Spread the fries in a single layer on a large baking sheet. Bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
  4. While the fries are baking, prepare the Cajun ranch. In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, buttermilk, ranch seasoning mix, and Cajun seasoning until smooth. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  5. Just before the fries are done, make the cheese sauce. In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the shredded cheddar cheese and evaporated milk. Stir continuously until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth.
  6. Place the hot, crispy fries on a serving platter. Drizzle generously with the warm cheese sauce and the Cajun ranch. Garnish with chopped green onions and serve immediately.

Notes

For the crispiest fries, ensure they are completely dry before tossing with oil and seasoning.
Adjust the spice level by adding more or less Cajun seasoning to the ranch sauce.
Serve immediately for the best texture and experience.
