DISCO FRIES RECIPE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients. Preheat the oven to the temperature needed for the fries (typically 425 F), and place the rack in the center of the oven.
• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the flour, stirring constantly and cooking until golden brown, about 2 minutes.
• While whisking, add the beef broth in a slow, steady stream to the roux , then add the minced shallots and garlic. Stirring regularly, cook the gravy for 15 to 20 minutes, or until it thickens to your desired consistency (it will thicken slightly as it rests).
• Once the gravy is simmering, place the frozen fries in a single layer on a baking sheet and cook according to the package directions.
• Add the Worcestershire sauce, sherry (if using), pepper, and salt when the gravy is nearly done. Stir well to incorporate. Remove the pan from the heat and let rest while the fries finish cooking.
• Remove the fries from the oven and transfer them to a shallow oven-safe serving platter. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 F. Top the fries with the mozzarella cheese and bake for 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
• To serve, drizzle as much gravy as you like over the cheesy fries.

DISCO FRIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (or the temperature indicated on the package of french fries). Spray a large rimmed baking pan with cooking spray.
• Spread the fries in the pan in a single layer and spray with cooking spray. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake according to the package directions or until very crispy.
• Meanwhile, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour, garlic powder, onion powder and paprika and cook, stirring, 1 minute. Slowly add the broth while whisking constantly and occasionally stirring with a rubber spatula, making sure to get into the edges of the pan, until all of the broth has been incorporated. Add the cream and increase the heat to medium-high to bring to a rapid simmer. Simmer, stirring often, until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Transfer half of the fries to a small rimmed baking pan or oven-safe platter. Top with half of the cheese, then add the remaining fries and the rest of the cheese. Return to the oven and bake until the cheese is melted, about 5 minutes. Drizzle the fries with some of the gravy. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• For the fries: Prepare the French fries according to the package instructions.
• For the country ham gravy: Place a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the butter and ham. Cook, stirring frequently until the ham is crispy and the butter just starts to brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove the ham to a paper towel-lined plate.
• Add the flour to the pan and whisk to form a smooth paste. Continue to whisk while pouring in the stock. Bring to a simmer and cook until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 5 minutes. Whisk in the mustard, lemon juice and black pepper. Set aside in a warm area, until ready to serve.
• For the white cheese sauce: Pour the milk into a small saucepot over medium heat and bring to a simmer. Add the Cheddar, mozzarella and cornstarch and whisk until the cheese melts and a thick sauce is formed, about 3 minutes. The sauce will thicken more as it cools.
• Spread the fries onto a large serving platter. Generously pour the gravy and cheese sauce over the fries. Sprinkle with the crispy country ham bits and green onion. Serve with lots of napkins.

Add the stock and cook, whisking, until the mixture is smooth and thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon, 7 to 10 minutes. Stir in the sherry, Worcestershire, 1/2 teaspoon salt and some pepper, adjusting the seasoning to taste. Remove from the heat and cover by pressing a piece of plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the gravy, taking care to cover it completely to prevent a skin from forming. Set aside.

JERSEY DINER DISCO FRIES

Steps:

• Place the potato wedges in a large bowl and cover with ice water. Let stand for at least 30 minutes and up to an hour. Drain the potatoes well. In batches, dry the potatoes on kitchen towels and let them sit for 30 minutes more to absorb any remaining moisture.
• Fill a fryer or a large, heavy saucepan with 5 inches of oil. Place over high heat and bring the oil up to 315 degrees F. Set a wire rack on a sheet pan and place near the fryer or stove.
• In batches to avoid crowding, add the potato wedges and fry, shaking them in the basket to separate them, or if in a large pot, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon. Cook until the potato wedges are pale gold and slightly floppy, about 4 minutes. They should not be browned at this point. Remove from the oil with a wire skimmer and transfer to the wire rack to drain. Bring the oil back up to 315 degrees F and repeat with the remaining potato wedges. Remove the saucepan from the heat and set aside?do not throw out the oil. Let the potato wedges stand until completely cooled, at least 2 hours and up to 4 hours.
• Meanwhile, prepare the gravy. In a high-sided skillet or medium saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook until translucent, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 to 2 more minutes. Season with salt and pepper, then add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and melt. Sprinkle the flour in the pan and cook, whisking until light brown, about 2 minutes. Whisk in the chicken stock and Worcestershire sauce. Continue whisking until there are no lumps. Let the gravy come to a bubble and cook until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 5 minutes. Lower the heat and hold there, whisking regularly to keep it from sticking. Now it's time to finish the French fries.
• Reheat the fry oil over high heat to 350 degrees F. In batches to avoid overcrowding, add the potato wedges to the hot oil and deep-fry until crisp and golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a sheet pan and keep warm in a 200 degree F oven, if needed, while you fry the remaining potato wedges. Season with salt.
• Preheat the broiler.
• Arrange the potato wedges on a baking sheet or oven-proof platter. Pour the gravy over the top of the potato wedges and top with the shredded mozzarella. Place the baking sheet under the broiler until the cheese has melted, about 1 minute.

SUNNY'S LOADED DISCO FRIES

Steps:

• In a large pot over low heat, add the shredded chicken and stock. Heat gently for 15 minutes to reheat and rehydrate the chicken.
• In a large pan with straight sides on medium heat, add the butter, oil, onions, a pinch of salt and a hefty amount of pepper. Cook until the onions are tender, 5 to 8 minutes. Then, add the mustard, red chili flakes, thyme and garlic. Cook a few minutes to combine, then add the flour and cook until you can't smell the flour anymore, 2 to 3 minutes. Strain the chicken stock from the pot of chicken (reserve the chicken) and slowly add the stock to the pan, stirring. Cook until thickened to a gravy consistency, 5 to 8 minutes.
• Meanwhile, fry the crinkle fries according to the package instructions.
• Toss the parsley with the reserved chicken. In a shallow serving bowl, add the fries, some cheese, the chicken, more cheese, the gravy, bacon and scallions.

JERSEY DISCO FRIES

Steps:

• Pre-heat oven to 450 degrees F.
• Arrange steak fries in a single layer in a greased 15-in. x 10-in. baking sheet.
• Salt and pepper as desired.
• Bake for 15-20 minutes or until lightly browned. (Check the frozen fries' packaging for alternate baking directions).
• About 5 minutes before the fries are finished baking, pour the gravy in a small pot and warm on the stove over medium heat, stirring frequently.
• Empty the cheese sauce in a microwave-safe bowl and cover with a sheet of paper towel (to protect against splattering). Heat the sauce on high for 30 seconds, then stop and stir the sauce.
• Repeat microwaving the cheese sauce on high for 30-second intervals for about 2 to 3 total minutes. (You want to heat it enough that it becomes easily pourable).
• Take fries out of the oven and place on a large platter.
• Pour gravy over the fries.
• Then pour on the cheese sauce. Add as much cheese and gravy as you want -- some like their disco fries drier; others like them drowning.
