Ingredients:
- 4 medium potatoes, cut into wedges
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, combine the oil, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Place the potatoes in a large bowl and toss them with the oil mixture until they are well coated.
- Arrange the potatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the potatoes are golden brown and crisp. Remove the potatoes from the oven and sprinkle the cheese over the top.
- Return the potatoes to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Serve the cheese fries hot, with your choice of dipping sauces or toppings.
Tips:
- For extra flavor, try seasoning the fries with chili powder, paprika, or herbs de Provence.
- For a more substantial meal, top the fries with diced cooked chicken, crumbled bacon, or diced tomatoes.
- For a vegan version, use a vegan cheese and omit the dairy-based dipping sauces.
