Ingredients
- 4 large russet potatoes, cut into fries
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 can (15 oz) black beans, rinsed and drained
- 1/2 cup sliced jalapeños (pickled or fresh)
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Oil for frying or baking
Instructions
- Prepare the Fries: Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) if baking. Cut the potatoes into fries and soak them in cold water for 30 minutes to remove excess starch.
- Cook the Fries: Drain and pat the fries dry. Toss them in oil, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Bake for 25-30 minutes or fry in hot oil until golden and crispy.
- Assemble the Nachos: Once the fries are cooked, remove them from the oven or fryer. Layer the fries on a serving platter, sprinkle with black beans, and top with shredded cheddar cheese.
- Melt the Cheese: Return the loaded fries to the oven for 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Add Toppings: Remove from the oven and top with sliced jalapeños, sour cream, and chopped cilantro. Serve immediately.
