4.7 from 85 reviews

Louisiana Voodoo Fries are a bold, flavorful twist on classic fries, topped with a spicy Cajun seasoning, melted cheese, and a zesty sauce for a rich, indulgent snack or side dish perfect for game day or casual gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale

Fries

  • 1 lb frozen French fries

Seasoning

  • 1 tbsp Cajun seasoning

Cheese

  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Sauce

  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp hot sauce (such as Louisiana hot sauce)
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika

Instructions

  1. Bake the fries: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Spread the frozen French fries evenly on a baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes or until crispy and golden, turning halfway through for even cooking.
  2. Season the fries: Once the fries are baked, transfer them to a large bowl and sprinkle with the Cajun seasoning. Toss well to coat all fries evenly with the seasoning.
  3. Add the cheese: Place the seasoned fries back on the baking sheet and evenly sprinkle both shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheese on top. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  4. Prepare the sauce: In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, hot sauce, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Mix until smooth and well incorporated.
  5. Serve: Remove the cheesy fries from the oven and drizzle the prepared spicy sauce over the top. Serve immediately while hot and gooey for a delicious savory treat.

Notes

  • For extra crunch, use shoestring fries or waffle fries.
  • Adjust the amount of hot sauce in the sauce to your preferred spice level.
  • Try adding chopped green onions or fresh parsley as a garnish for added freshness.
  • If you prefer a dipping sauce on the side, serve the spicy mayo separately.
  • This recipe can be made with homemade fries if preferred; just adjust cooking time accordingly.
