French fries with their crispy outside, and fluffy potato inside, can have delicious savory toppings added to them to make them a meal in itself!
You can add gravy, cheese curds, chili beef, homemade cheese sauce, guacamole, and pepperoni to make your own French fries with these tasty toppings right at home.
Poutine
Poutine is a classic topping for French fry fries.
Poutine is made by making your own gravy, and drizzling the gravy over the fries.
Add cheese curds on top of the fries, and serve!
The cheese curds will begin to melt onto the piping hot fries and gravy.
The cheese will be stringy from melting onto the fries.
Chili Cheese Fries
Chili cheese fries are made with savory chili beef, and homemade cheese sauce.
Chili beef is coated in chili spices (garlic, chili powder, cumin) and cooked in tomato paste, with tomatoes and kidney beans.
The cheese sauce is made with heavy cream, making it extra rich and creamy. The chili cheese sauce is flavored with garlic powder, chili powder, onion powder and cumin.
Sharp cheddar cheese is melted into the cheese sauce and whisked until smooth.
When you’re ready to make your fries, assemble them by adding chili beef to the fries first.
Drizzle the cheese sauce on top of the fries. Garnish with a few green onions.
Garlic Parmesan Fries
Garlic parmesan fries have a salty, cheesy flavor with a hint of garlic.
Garlic parmesan fries are made by cooking butter with minced garlic to bring out the garlic flavor.
When the fries are cooked, toss them with the garlic butter. Coat the fries fully.
Add shredded parmesan, and chopped up parsley. Mix to coat the fries and serve immediately.
Cuban Fries
Cuban fries taste like you’re eating a Cuban sandwich, in fry form!
Cuban fries are made by adding diced ham, and chopped up pickles on top of the fries.
Cuban fries are drizzled with homemade creamy swiss cheese sauce.
To top off the fries, and a little yellow mustard, and serve!
Nacho French Fries
Nacho French fries are topped with your favorite nacho toppings.
Begin by cooking ground beef with a bit of garlic and onions. Flavor the beef by adding chili powder, and paprika.
Add the beef on top of your cooked French fries, and top with shredded Monterey jack cheese. Cook the fries in the oven again to melt the cheese onto the fries.
After the fries come out of the oven, top them with pickled jalapenos, and parsley.
Mix together a bit of hot sauce into sour cream and drizzle the spicy sour cream on top of the fries. Serve immediately.
Pizza French Fries
Pizza fries are a bit unique, in that the fries act as the “crust” of the pizza. The fries are mashed and pressed together to make the pizza crust on a heat proof pan.
The fries are topped with marinara sauce, shredded mozzarella, and slices of pepporoni.
The pizza fries are baked in the oven until the cheese has melted through.
Chicken Bacon Ranch Fries
Chicken bacon ranch fries are full of tasty savory ranch flavor.
Chicken bacon ranch fries are made by combining cooked pieces of chicken, crispy bacon bits with ranch, and diced green chili peppers.
Add the mixture on top of cooked fries, and top with shredded mozzarella, Monterey rack cheese, and cheddar cheese.
Bake in the oven until the cheese has melted, and serve!
Kimchi Fries
Kimchi fries are sweet and spicy!
Kimchi fries are made by making your own vegan cheese sauce and drizzling the sauce over the cooked fries.
Top the fries with kimchi and a little sriracha mayo.
Garnish the fries by adding chopped up green onions and sesame seeds.
Chorizo Fries
Chorizo fries are quite spicy!!
Chorizo fries are made by cooking the chorizo with a diced bell pepper, and adding them on top of the fries.
Add slices of jalapenos, radishes, and onions to the fries. If you don’t want to put raw onions and jalapenos on top of the fries, I recommend sautéing them with the chorizo and bell pepper.
Drizzle chipotle mayo on top and serve!
Guacamole Nacho Fries
Guacamole nacho fries have both the beef and guac to make these cheesy Fries!
Guacamole nacho fries are made by cooking ground beef with cayenne, paprika, and cumin to make the beef full of spicy flavors.
Cook your fries, and add the cooked ground beef, and shredded cheddar cheese on top of the fries. Broil the fries until the cheese has melted.
Top the fries with freshly made guacamole, diced tomatoes, and a drizzle of sour cream.
Garnish the fries with fresh cilantro.
