ROBBY'S DRYDOCK FRIES



Robby's Drydock Fries image

Leggy Peggy told me I had to post more of Robby's secrets...so here's one of my favorite appetizers. The steak fries are drenched in a wonderful roast beef gravy (with a few tidbits of beef) and a yummy cheese sauce. Simple but scrumptious!!! Make this when you have leftover roast beef and gravy.

Categories     Roast Beef

Time 30m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 lb frozen french fries, steak-style
1 (12 ounce) can beef gravy, leftovers from your roast works great
1 cup cheese sauce, cheddar (or nacho)
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • You can always use frozen potatoes (baked), canned beef gravy (heated), and canned cheese sauce (heated) but it will be much better if you don't go that route and actually use the home-made stuff.
  • To assemble: Place steak fries on an oblong plate, cover with beef gravy (it's even better if there are bits of beef thrown in) and cheese sauce.
  • Give everyone a fork and knife and let them eat right off the platter. It's great fun! (:.

COPYCAT BURGER AND FRIES



Copycat Burger and Fries image

With gooey, melty cheese on a double burger with browned and crusty bits, plus fresh, crunchy toppings and a soft, steamy bun served alongside golden fries, this is pretty darn close to the real thing served at that restaurant chain run by those five brothers. Make these burgers and fries at home and save lots of money while satisfying your fast food cravings. Serve the fries with malt vinegar and enjoy with a cold beer... you can't get that at the restaurant!

Time 50m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 medium russet potatoes
8 cups peanut oil for frying
14 ounces ground chuck
4 thick slices American cheese
1 teaspoon hot sauce (such as Frank's Red Hot ®)
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
2 medium sesame seed burger buns
½ cup shredded iceberg lettuce
2 thick slices tomato
2 tablespoons diced onion
1 tablespoon pickle slices
2 teaspoons mustard
2 teaspoons ketchup
1 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • Cut potatoes in 1/2-inch wide strips. Place in a large bowl filled with warm water and soak for 20 minutes.
  • Pour oil in a Dutch oven and heat over medium-high heat until it reaches 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with paper towels and set a wire rack on top.
  • Drain potatoes well and dry thoroughly with paper towels. Add 1/2 of the dried potatoes to the hot oil and cook, stirring often, until they soften slightly, about 3 minutes. Remove potatoes to the wire rack to drain. Repeat with remaining potatoes. Maintain oil temperature at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for finishing fries just before serving.
  • Divide ground chuck into 4 portions and flatten to form 1/4-inch thick patties.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add burger patties to the hot skillet and cook undisturbed, until a brown crust has formed around the edges, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip, press down with a spatula to flatten, and cook for 2 more minutes. Flip again, press down once more, then top each patty with a slice of cheese; cook for 1 minute.
  • While the burgers cook, spread mustard and ketchup on bottom halves of the buns. Drizzle hot sauce on the top halves of the buns, then spread mayonnaise over top. Layer with lettuce, tomato slices, pickles, and onions.
  • Invert 1 patty onto a second patty so the cheese sides are touching. Repeat with remaining 2 patties. Place a stacked patty onto each top bun, and cover with a bottom bun, condiment-side down. Wrap burgers in foil.
  • Return fries to the hot oil and cook until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain on paper towels and sprinkle with salt. Serve immediately with burgers.

CHEF JOHN'S FRENCH FRIES

I don't think most people realize that any decent French fry needs to be twice fried. The first frying in done at a lower temperature, which softens the potato and prepares the starchy surface for the second frying's crispification.

BEST BAKED FRENCH FRIES

The healthiest way to make fries is to bake them. It saves money and you can't beat the taste. I have been playing around with different ways to bake fries for some time now, and I feel this is the best recipe thus far. Baking time may vary depending on how thick you cut the fries. Enjoy!

HOME FRIES



Home Fries image

The great thing about this recipe is that it can be cooked in just one skillet - and it eliminates the time-consuming task of blanching your potatoes first. Water, oil and salt are combined in one pan. Once the potatoes enter the skillet, the lid is added and the potatoes steam, cooking evenly and absorbing the flavors of the salt and oil. Once the lid comes off, the water evaporates yet the oil remains, so the potatoes pan-fry until crispy. The results? Crunchy home fries with pillowy centers. If cooking for a crowd, double or triple the recipe, but do cook in batches, to avoid crowding the pan.

Time 15m

Yield 2 servings (about 1 1/4 cups)

Number Of Ingredients 3

1/3 cup vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 medium Yukon Gold potato (about 7 ounces), cut into 1/2-inch cubes

Steps:

  • Add the oil, salt and 1/3 cup water to a medium cast-iron skillet; whisk to combine.
  • Add the potato cubes in an even layer. (It's very important to not crowd the pan.) Turn heat to medium, cover the skillet and cook the potatoes, undisturbed, for about 6 minutes.
  • Uncover, give them a toss or shake. Cook, uncovered and undisturbed, until the underside turns golden, then carefully flip. Repeat on all sides until the water evaporates and the potatoes are crispy all over and tender inside, about 9 minutes total.
  • Transfer the home fries to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve hot.
