6 Spicy French Fries with Sauces
Votes: 3
If you're tired of plain, salty fries, try one of our six spicy fries. Each is completely different—spicy, smoky, oriental, cheesy, or garlicky—there's something to suit everyone's taste. To prepare, you'll need frozen fries, olive oil, and the appropriate seasonings. For extra crispiness, bake them on preheated baking sheets. Each spicy fry option also comes with a matching sauce.
For all options: Preheat oven to 230°C (430°F), placing two baking sheets on the top and bottom racks. Mix 0.9 kg (2.5 lb) of frozen French fries with the spices and place them on the hot baking sheets. Bake according to package directions, rotating the baking sheets halfway through the baking time.
Moroccan French Fries: Toss fries with 2 tablespoons olive oil, 2 tablespoons ground cumin, 1 teaspoon ground coriander, 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger, and 1/4 teaspoon each ground cinnamon and cayenne pepper; bake. Sprinkle with finely chopped cilantro.
