Seabrook Loaded Fries, Cheese & Bacon, 6 x 19g

Product Information

Place them in a pan of boiling salted water and simmer until they start to soften but are still quite firm. Chips is a dish we all love; we can make them even better by adding our favourite toppings. If you love cheesy fries, then you’re going to love this; it’s so much better. I love making dirty fries because:

Fermented tofu : Amy Poon, from sauce maker Poon’s, swears by fermented tofu mashed with sesame oil over fries. Preserved in brine, rice wine and seasonings, and available in Chinese supermarkets, the tofu is, she says, “deliciously complex: tangy, faintly cheesy, sweet, salty, creamy. Think roquefort.” Sprinkle over sugar, chillies and chopped spring onions to taste. Ideal for dipping and available in numerous flavours - from original to indulgent and interesting to super spiced - tortilla chips will always be a favourite. Keep an eye on the broiler— a broiler can work fast, so watch the cheesy fries closely so they do not burn Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of cheese to find the perfect one for your needs. You may prefer to make a creamy cheddar cheese sauce to add on top of the cooked chips. See our cheesy pasta recipe for how to make a cheese sauce. ChivesArmitage augments fries with Marmite and grills them with vegan cheese, while Jess Karia, from hot sauce retailer Bauce Brothers, makes spicy mayo: mix gochujang paste, miso, soy sauce, honey, hot sauce and rice vinegar into mayonnaise, to taste, and add water if required, to make a sauce. Then slather it over fries gilded with parmesan, coriander, sesame seeds and spring onions.

If you allow any left overs to cool, make sure to refrigerate in a container with a lid and chill. You can keep leftovers of these Dirty Fries in the fridge for approximately 3 days or so. Can I cook Dirty Fries another way? Delicious bacon and cheese as toppings are a must when making heavy loaded fries; this is as standard! This recipe also adds onions, spring onions, bell peppers and Cajun seasoning to make the best version ever. The best thing about making homemade dirty fries is that the toppings you use is completely up to you. If you have little ones who don't understand that the baking tray is hot then please serve theirs out on a serving plate!) You could also use ‘all rounder’ potatoes which are typically floury potatoes. These are neither too starchy or too watery. Here in the UK these potatoes are usually marketed as all rounders but elsewhere look out for Yukon Gold potatoes.

Which potatoes are recommended to use?

Ideal for a simple fast dinner, lunch, or supper with a pot of ketchup, mayonnaise, English or dijon mustard, or BBQ sauce. Whilst the chips are cooking cut the red onion in half, peel it and then slice it into half-moon shapes as finely as you can.

Meanwhile, spray a frying pan with a generous amount of low calorie cooking spray, then add the chopped peppers, bacon, onions, Worcestershire sauce and remaining Cajun seasoning.

Swap or skip any ingredient you do not like —bacon cheddar fries are even better when you love all the ingredients included. This recipe won’t make you magically like ranch or jalapenos, so swap or skip them if you don’t like them

Once the chips are done, sprinkle them with mozzarella or cheddar cheese, then add the bacon lardons on top. Ideally, you want to eat loaded fries with your fingers. A key appeal of this dish is that it allows you to disavow parental authority and the arid discipline of the bourgeois western dining table – and dig greedily and unapologetically in with your fingers. Mix the cornflour, salt and 2 teaspoons of the smoked paprika together in a large bowl. Add the sweet potatoes and mix well to coat. Add 2 tablespoons of the oil and massage in so each piece is well coated. Divide between the baking trays and cook for 20–25 minutes, or until golden and crisp.

What are loaded fries?

It may sound very naughty, but as they are baked rather than deep fried, oven chips have far less fat. I always make a smaller portion than the massive ones from the chippie (one portion from our local is bigger than what I cook for two). You can make your own accompaniments. We’re all allowed a little indulgence now and again, so sling on the toppings that you love and enjoy! How to Make Fully Loaded Dirty Chips Step three – When the chips are ready, transfer them to an oven-proof dish. (I like to use a cast-iron skillet.) Top with the grated cheese. Bacon, potatoes and Cajun spice may sound like a bit of an odd mix, but it’s truly amazing. It has to be one of our favourite combinations ever.
