CARNE ASADA CHEESE FRIES
The Piper Inn is one of the oldest, oddest and friendliest restaurants in Denver, loved by bikers and hipsters alike. It's been owned by the Levin family since opening in 1968, but because so many different cooks have passed through the kitchen over fifty years, it has a Chinese-American-Mexican menu that is entirely unique. Carne asada fries, French fries topped with the fillings of a carne asada (steak) taco, are a California-Mexican classic. The Piper Inn adds a Midwestern-style beer cheese sauce to its popular version.

Steps:
- Add steak to a medium bowl, and toss with the lime juice, chili powder, cayenne (if using), salt and pepper until thoroughly coated. Let marinate at room temperature while you prepare the remaining components.
- Prepare the beer cheese: In a medium saucepan, melt the cream cheese over medium heat, stirring frequently, about 2 minutes. Add the beer in a slow stream, whisking until smooth. Let the foam die down, about 1 minute, then decrease heat to low and add the cheese one handful at a time, whisking until smooth before adding the next. Once you've integrated all the cheese, whisk in the Worcestershire, mustard, garlic powder and paprika. Season to taste with salt, cover and set aside, off heat. (Makes 1 1/4 cups.)
- Prepare the garnish: In a small bowl, stir together the onion, cilantro and lime juice. Set aside.
- Make the carne asada: Heat the oil in a large cast-iron skillet or griddle over medium-high. Add the meat, and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and the sauce reduces to a glaze, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Arrange cooked fries on a serving platter in an even layer, and drizzle beer cheese on top to taste. Top with the carne asada and onion-cilantro mixture. Serve with lime wedges, and crema, if desired.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients. The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your carne asada fries will be. Look for fresh, flavorful carne asada, crispy french fries, and a flavorful cheese sauce.
- Cook the carne asada properly. The carne asada should be cooked over high heat until it is slightly charred and cooked through. This will give it a delicious smoky flavor.
- Use a variety of toppings. In addition to cheese sauce, you can also top your carne asada fries with salsa, guacamole, sour cream, or pico de gallo. Get creative and experiment with different toppings to find your favorite combination.
- Serve immediately. Carne asada fries are best served hot and fresh. The fries will get soggy if they sit for too long, so be sure to eat them right away.
Conclusion:
Carne asada fries are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. Whether you are having a party or just want a quick and easy meal, carne asada fries are sure to be a hit. So next time you are looking for something new to try, give carne asada fries a try. You won't be disappointed!
