Ingredients
Frozen french friescrinkle cut
1/2cupshredded cheddar cheese
2oz.jalapeños
fresh parsleyfor garnish
Instructions
Turn on your waffle maker and set the heat to about three-quarters of the way toward high.
Pour out your frozen fries so that the bottom of your waffle maker is covered, and make a small pile.
Sprinkle the cheese and jalapeños in the spaces between the fries and on top. Top with any french fries that may have fallen off. It should look like a tall mountain of fries and toppings (that means you're doing it right).
Close the waffle maker and press hard to get the lid down as much as possible. As the fries thaw and cook you can gradually close the waffle maker all the way down.
Once the lid can close completely, let the waffle fry cook for about 8-10 minutes.
Use a spatula to remove the potato waffle fry from the waffle iron to a plate.
Sprinkle some parsley for garnish and serve with your favorite dipping sauce!
