Once in a while I have, what I like to call…”Duh moments”. Actually, I have them a lot, but this time it resulted in something dangerously delicious. Crispy French Fries crusted in bits of smoky Bacon!
~That’s it..nothing complicated, or confusing. Just Bacon crusted Fries! 🙂
It’s hard to believe that the combination of those two things could cause such a stir. But they did! All I had to do was set the plate down and like magic, otherwise normal, calm, level-headed people lost their minds. Manners went out the window and lips were smacking everywhere.
~No one was even ashamed..lol!
What you’ll need to see the dark side of everyone you know:
Double accordingly for more Fries..you will need more Bacon!
Frozen Shoestring French Fries (I used about 4 cups)
1lb Bacon..crispy and crushed!
1 Egg (not 2 as shown)
1 Cup Milk
Directions:
Defrost the fries.
Crush up the Crispy Bacon the best way you can…
Mix the Egg and the Milk, add the Fries and let them get evenly coated in the liquid…
Coat the moist Fries in the Bacon Crumbles and bake them at 350 degrees for approx. 30 minutes, or until they’re evenly golden and crispy…
Serve them up and watch everyone you thought you knew turn into animals…haha! ~Enjoy! 🙂
I tried these tonight but my french fries never crisped up and bacon falling off. Do you need to soak fries in milk for a few minutes? Also did you add some salt to the fries? They tasted like they needed something more. I’ll have to try with cheese. Served them with Chili Sauce for dipping.
I have found that if you add cheese to this recipe, the bacon sticks to the fries better. If you want thicker fries, buy regular frozen fries.
