Cheddar Fries

Ingredients

• 2 large baking potatoes
• 1/2 cup flour
• 1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
• 1/2 cup water
• 2 cups oil
• 1 1/2 cups Cheddar cheese, shredded

Directions

• 1. Cut fries 1/4"to 1/2" thick and place in a bowl of cold water to prevent potatoes from turning brown.
• 2. With whisk combine flour, seasoned salt, garlic salt and water. (Add a little more water if needed to thin mixture to consistency of pancake batter.)
• 3. Place oil in medium saucepan over medium heat.
• 4. Test oil with a drop of batter. If it immediately rises to top, oil is ready. If drop turns black, reduce heat.
• 5. Drain potatoes and pat dry. Dip in batter until well coated.
