What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? Waste Not, Want Not: Volcano Cheese Fries! Say, Whaaat? I first had these tasty morsels at my fav fish hut in Kauai. But after returning home, I really had a craving for them again. Granted, being a Midwesterner, I simply couldn’t resist adding a glob of queso cheese on top. In my defense, the bonfires we have always mix the colors of fiery red and golden yellow. That’s my story, and I’m sticking to it. But if you have the willpower, I won’t be offended if you skip it. The furikake seasoning and sriracha sauce are the star attractions anyway.
VOLCANO CHEESE FRIES
Ingredients:
16 ounces shoestring fries, frozen
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
2 tablespoons sriracha sauce
1/3 cup Queso cheese dip, warmed
1 tablespoon furikake seasoning
Instructions:
Bake French fried potatoes according to package directions. Remove from oven, sprinkle with sea salt. Toss gently. Transfer to a large bowl so the fries can be piled into a volcano mound. Drizzle sriracha sauce over the top, to taste. Add the warmed Queso cheese dip. Sprinkle with furikake seasoning. Serve immediately.

That sounds like a fun job, Gail!

Wal-Mart says they have it, too. Sometimes that doesn’t pan out, though.

Cheese, fries and sriracha – I could eat a pile of these. I will leave off the furikake seasoning (still trying to develop a taste for it) 🙂

Because I first had it on Kauai, I used it. Furikake is definitely seasoning that needs getting used to. 🤣
