Outback Steakhouse's Aussie Fries

Courses: Side dish

Recipe Ingredients

1   Bag frozen French fries - (2 lbs)
1 cup 146g / 5.1ozShredded Colby Jack cheese - see * Note
6   Bacon - cooked
  Dipping Sauce
1   Ranch dressing - (16 oz)
2 teaspoons 10mlPaprika
1 teaspoon 5mlCayenne pepper
1 teaspoon 5mlDried thyme
1 teaspoon 5mlDried oregano
1 teaspoon 5mlFreshly-ground white pepper
1 teaspoon 5mlFreshly-ground black pepper
1 tablespoon 15mlKosher salt
1 tablespoon 15mlGarlic powder
1 tablespoon 15mlOnion powder

Recipe Instructions

* Note: An excellent suggestion is to use the cheese that is labeled as "Taco Cheese", cheese for Tacos

Dipping Sauce: Combine all ingredients and chill. Refrigerate overnight for the best flavor.

Aussie Fries: Divide the fries into half, and use the other half later. Heat oil to 350 degrees. If you do not have a thermostat, make sure the oil is hot enough, so that when you set a French fry in there it will cook immediately. If the French fry sinks to the bottom, and barely bubbles, it is not hot enough.

Fry the potatoes in small batches, they are done when they are golden brown, and float to the top of the skillet. (I like to use a Dutch Oven). Be sure to drain the potatoes on paper towels. You can keep them warm in the oven while the other fries are done.

When all French fries are done cooking and drained, place them onto a platter. Salt the French fries if you like, and sprinkle on cheese and cooked bacon. Pop these back into a warm oven until the cheese begins to melt.

Serve with the dipping sauce.
