Easy Cheesy French Fries Sandwich with crispy french fries, cheese and loads of toppings! Get over regular french fries – cheesy french fries sandwich is the BEST way to eat those fries!
How was your weekend friends?! For me this weekend meant lots & lots of cooking, getting recipes ready for the blog. We are going to be travelling starting next week and that means I have to pre plan a ton of content. How much comfortable do you feel when you have to get posts ready before hand?
I am a huge procrastinator so that means I wait until the last moment to take charge of things which sort of makes it really hard especially for online work because I have realised that I simply can’t write in the car! Have you tried writing sitting in the car?! The worst!!
But the good thing that came out was that we had tons of different foods to try & eat. Today’s recipe is a special one! This recipe was given to me by my sis in law and growing up her mother used to make this all the time.
I love when I get to try family recipes because you know those are always the best especially the ones passed down from generations to generations. And so is TODAY’S recipe. Crispy french fries coated with sweet & spicy sauce and loads of cheese and all that stuffed into hot dog buns.
This was my first time eating french fries like these and I must say I am never going back to eating them plain! This version rocks. In every bite you get tons of flavor & it’s a perfect meatless meal or great for summer cookouts or even for a quick evening snack!
Everything that is fries, sauces, seasonings and vegetables are mixed which is then ready to be filled inside the buns.
Buns are buttered both inside & outside.
Then I like to add little cheese inside which helps in holding everything inside.
Then fill up generously with sweet & spicy potato mixture.
Then top it with lots of cheese because well let’s be honest cheese makes everything better! 😉
And that’s it! You won’t be able to wait for these to cool down. Devour!!

Mix everything and taste. Fix seasoning or if you want more sweeter add more ketchup or if you want little more gravy then add little more tomato puree. Make sure the mixture is really nicely seasoned. Keep it aside.
