Well well well, cheesy is the right word and if you are lucky enough to actually find a fine example of cheesy fries like the ones in the photo, then please send me directions.  The trouble with UK fast food culture is not just that it is pretty crap, but also because it’s cheap and caters mostly to heavily intoxicated people enjoying the various forms of alcohol and/or drugs on offer.

On any street in London you can find various forms of recognizable fast food rip offs such as, “Finger Lick’n Chick’n” and “Mrs. Millie’s Chicken”, which for some reason craps all over the colonel. But unfortunately no cheesy fries.

The best bet is to go to your closest hamburger hovel. But what you will find is half melted cheese on top of sludgy-brown gravy which covers a handful of fries that have been kept warm in a bainne marie. This travesty will cost you about £1.50-£2.50.  If you are drunk enough you will absolutely ravish them like your first pleasurable sexual experience and it will be just as messy.

Now for all you cheese lovers out there I would like to point out that I am actually a MASSIVE fan of fries, gravy and cheese and the idea of dumping them together is awesome. Having said that, these things need to be done correctly, so I will give up one of my recipes for making some killa cheesy fry action.

You will need basic ingredients fries, gravy, tasty cheese, bacon, sour cream and seasoning.

Okay, first cook fries until they are nice and crispy. Do not under cook them as the gravy will make them soggy. Pre-make your gravy (packet stuff will but be sure to add some red wine to the mix when cooking). Fry your bacon in little pieces until crispy, then once done follow these steps.

*Place layer of fries into bowl

*Layer of gravy

*Layer bacon

*Layer cheese

Repeat these steps until you have at least 3 layers. Finish with a mound of cheese.

Put this bowl of awesomeness into a hot oven until the cheese is browned, then slap on a huge wad of sour cream, grab a few forks and share with your drunken housemates who will soon become your friends for life.

Puke out!!!

Enjoy.
