This is not a complicated recipe, probably more of a How To, however it's a simple, unique and delicious side for your favourite protein. The instructions I found called for waffle fries which worked great, but this should work well on any french fries. First start cooking your fries in an air fryer or oven, I found these waffle fries took about 30-35 minutes to crisp in the oven at 400ºF.

For the topping, in an oven safe fry pan, or dish, put down a layer of pizza sauce about 1/2" thick, then a healthy layer of mozzarella cheese, and finally a layer of pepperoni. From here you can add more of your favourite pizza toppings, I chose to keep it simple. This only takes about 10-15 minutes  to cook in the same oven as the fries so time putting it in the oven accordingly so it finishes at the same time.

Both the fries and topping should be ready at the same time, so first lay down a layer of fries on a plate.

Next use a spatula to loosen baked on cheese all around the edge. Now tip the pan at an angle and slide the topping over your fries, the pizza sauce lets it slide out with ease. Scrape out the excess pizza sauce on top if you like.

Voila!

I've seen other recipes where the fries, sauce and toppings are baked all at once in one pan, but I believe the fries would get quite soggy. This method keeps your fries crisp and topping delicious!

Cheers, MIKE
