SPICY FRIES

Steps:

• Prepare 1 pound frozen french fries as the label directs. Meanwhile, cook 1/2 thinly sliced onion, 1 tablespoon hot paprika and 1 teaspoon salt in 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat, stirring, 4 minutes. Add 1 minced garlic clove and cook 2 more minutes. Remove from the heat and add 3 chopped scallions and 2 tablespoons chopped parsley. Add the fries and toss to coat.

CAJUN FRIES (CAJUN FRENCH FRY SEASONING)

Steps:

• Set out a large bowl of ice water. Cut the potatoes into long strips 1/3 to 1/2 inch wide. You can leave the peel on the potatoes to add a little texture on the sides, or peel them first. Once each potato is cut into fries, submerge the potato strips in the ice water. Soak the fries in cold water for a minimum of one hour, but the longer the better. You can even soak them overnight for extra crispy fries. (Pulling the excess starches out of the potatoes with cold water gives the fries the best crispy on the outside, soft in the middle texture.)
• Meanwhile set out a small bowl. Measure and combine all the ingredients for the french fry seasoning. Mix well.
• When ready to fry, remove the potato strips from the cold water. Lay them out flat on paper towels and pat dry. (They need to be well-dried before going in the oil to avoid splatter.) Set a large saucepot on the stovetop. Add 2 quarts of fry oil to the pot, and attach a cooking thermometer to the side of the pot.
• Turn the heat to medium and wait for the fry oil to reach 310° F.
• Set a large rimmed baking sheet to the side of the pot lined with paper towels to hold the fries.
• Once the oil is hot, use a skimmer to lower 1 to 2 portions of fries down into the hot oil. Stir well and fry for 4 to 6 minutes until golden brown. Use the skimmer to move the fries to the holding tray. Immediately sprinkle with fry seasoning and shake to coat.
• Repeat with several more small batches. Adjust the temperature as needed to keep the oil around 300°F. You can place the tray of fries in a 200°F oven to keep warm if desired.

SPICY HOME FRIES

Steps:

• Place the potatoes in a large saucepan, cover with cold water and add 1 tablespoon salt. Bring to a boil over high heat and cook until the potatoes fall apart when a fork is inserted, 20 to 25 minutes. Drain well.
• Heat the butter over medium heat in a large saute pan. Add the onion and jalapeno and cook until soft. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Stir in the ancho chile powder and stir until combined. Add the potatoes, salt and pepper and toss the mixture, slightly mashing the potatoes with a metal spatula. Press the potato mixture into one even layer and cook until golden brown on the bottom. Turn over and gently mash again into an even layer and cook until the bottom is golden brown. Stir in the cilantro and lime zest and transfer to a bowl.
