On law and order last night someone said (of a particular diner) best cheese fries in town.

I had them once--at a diner with indifferent food. They seemed to be French Fries with something like Velveeta or Cheese Whiz slathered on top.

Two cheese fries recipes
Two cheese fries recipes

Bacon Cheese Fries

16 oz. (1/2 of 32-oz. pkg.) frozen french fried potatoes
8 slices OSCAR MAYER Ready to Serve Bacon, cut into small pieces
1 cup KRAFT Shredded Cheddar Cheese
1/4 cup green onion slices

COOK french fries as directed on package; place on ovenproof dish or platter.

PREHEAT broiler. Sprinkle fries with bacon, cheese and onions.

BROIL, 4 to 6 inches from heat, 1 to 2 minutes or until cheese is melted.
------------------------------------------------------------

Cheese Fries

1 sack frozen French fries, any brand or shape - crinkle cut, thin cut, steak cut, waffle fries - prepared to package directions
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups whole milk
2 1/2 cups, (10-ounce) sack shredded yellow Cheddar
3 squirts ketchup, about 1/4 cup

Place the fries in oven on a cookie sheet and bake according to package directions.

While fries are baking in the oven, place a sauce pot on the stove and heat it over medium heat. Add the butter and melt it.

Add the flour and stir. Cook butter and flour together for 1 minute or so to make a roux. Use a whisk to stir as the milk goes into the pot. Keep stirring until the milk gets thicker.

Use a wooden spoon or heat-safe spatula to stir in the cheese. When all of the cheese melts, take the sauce off the heat and stir in 3 squirts of ketchup.

Pour the sauce over the fries or serve the sauce on the side if you like dipping better.

They are, unfortunately, pretty yummy. Sometimes one can find chili-cheese fries.

Thanks BBB, I think the sauce as a dip might be o.k. I might give that a try.

We're just warming you 'Murricans up for the poutine invasion.

If you're British, you don't have to worry about poutine just yet ( Twisted Evil later maybe, when we Canucks seek world domination), but you might look askance on the mayonnaise-like stuff that the Dutch put on their fries.

Chili cheese fries, mmmmmm

For maybe just a few less calories, how about the chili and cheese over a baked potato?
