Method
 

Prepare the Fries

Fry the Potatoes

  3. Fry the potatoes in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes per batch.
  4. Remove fries from the oil and drain on paper towels.
Season the Fries
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the Cajun seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, black pepper, and salt.
  2. While the fries are still hot, sprinkle the seasoning mix over them and toss to coat evenly.
Assemble the Voodoo Fries
  1. Place the seasoned fries on a baking sheet.
  2. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the fries.
  3. Broil in the oven for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted.
