Tools needed
How to make Fried Potatoes with Cheese Sauce
-
Prepare the potatoes
Peel the potatoes and wash them thoroughly. Then, use a knife to cut the potatoes into long sticks about the thickness of a small finger.
To make the potatoes crispier, soak them in cold water for 30 minutes, then rinse the potatoes again with clean water and let them drain.
-
Parboil the potatoes
Boil a pot of water with a little salt, then add the potatoes and parboil for 5 minutes before removing them to a colander.
Next, spread the potatoes out on a layer of paper to let them dry completely.
Tip: Parboiling the potatoes will help make the fried potatoes crispier, fry faster, and prevent them from becoming tough or soggy when cooled. However, do not overboil to avoid the potatoes becoming mushy.
-
Fry the potatoes
Add the potatoes to a bowl, then add 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/2 teaspoon of paprika, and 1 teaspoon of dried parsley, and mix well.
Arrange the potatoes in the air fryer basket and fry for 20 minutes at 200 degrees Celsius.
-
Make cheese sauce
Place a pan on the stove over medium heat, add 20g of unsalted butter, 1/2 tablespoon of flour, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and 100ml of unsweetened fresh milk.
Stir well, and when the mixture boils, add 1/2 teaspoon of chili powder, 1/4 teaspoon of pepper, 1 teaspoon of sugar, adjust the seasoning to taste, and then add 4 slices of cheese.
Stir the mixture over low heat until it is blended and smooth, then turn off the heat.
