    Ingredients
      For the Potatoes
    • 720 grams Potatoes
    • Water
    • Ice cubes
    • 1 tablespoons Salt
    • 1 tablespoons Starch
    • Oil for frying
      • For the Cheese Sauce
    • 30 grams Butter
    • 1 tablespoons Flour
    • 1/4 tablespoons Salt
    • 1/4 teaspoon Hot pepper
    • 1/2 cup Milk
    • 70 grams Cheddar cheese
    Instructions

    1. Place the cut potatoes in a bowl. Pour water into the basin and drop in the ice cubes. Let them soak for 30 minutes. This helps remove excess starch, making them crispier.

    2. After soaking, drain the water from the potatoes thoroughly. Using a fresh kitchen sheet, pat the potatoes dry for any remaining moisture.

    3. Bring a pot of water to a boil. After it boils, stir in one tablespoon of salt.

    4. After five minutes of simmering, cook the potatoes. This will par-cook them, ensuring they become tender inside when fried.

    5. After boiling, drain the potatoes and place them in a bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of starch and mix well to coat the potatoes evenly.

    6. On a frying pan, heat the oil over a low flame. Once the oil is hot, add the potatoes and fry for about 5 minutes, or until they turn golden brown and crispy. In a uniform meal, make sure to stir from time to time.

    7. In a separate pan, melt 30 grams of butter over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of flour and stir for about a minute to create a roux.

    8. Gradually whisk in 1/2 cup of milk, stirring continuously until the mixture thickens.

    9. Add 1/4 tablespoon of salt and 1/4 tablespoon of hot pepper to taste.

    10. Finally, add 70 grams of cheddar cheese until melted and smooth.

    11. Serve the crispy potatoes hot with the cheesy sauce. Enjoy the crunchy, cheesy goodness.
