Steps:

• Divide the bag of fries in half and use the other half later.
• Heat oil to 350 degrees. If you do not have a thermometer, make sure the oil is hot enough so that when you set a French fry in the oil, it will cook immediately. If the French fry sinks to the bottom and barely bubbles, it is not hot enough.
• Fry the potatoes in small batches. They are done when they are golden brown and float to the top. (I like to use a Dutch oven). Be sure to drain the potatoes on paper towels. You can keep them warm in the oven while the other fries cooking.
• When all French fries are cooked and drained, place them on a platter.
• Salt the French fries if you like and sprinkle on cheese and cooked bacon.
• Pop these back into a warm oven until the cheese begins to melt.

Steps:

• For the Aussie Chips: Preheat oil to 375 degrees in a deep fryer.
• Cut potatoes into french fry slices using a vegetable slicer or mandolin. It's important to use a gadget for the slicing so that the fries will all be the same thickness, and will cook evenly. Submerge all of the sliced potatoes in a large bowl fill with cold water for 30 minutes.
• Combine all of the seasoning ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.
• Remove potato slices from the water and onto a clean towel. Blot dry.
• Fry potato slices for 8 to 12 minutes in hot oil until light brown. Drain fries on a rack or paper towels and sprinkle with some of the seasoning. Pile the fries on a plate and serve with ranch dressing on the side, if desired.
• For the Aussie Cheese Fries: Prepare the clone for the Aussie Chips and arrange the seasoned fries on an oven-safe plate. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Mix the cheeses together and sprinkle the blend over the fries. Crumble the bacon and sprinkle it over the cheese. Bake the plate for 4 to 5 minutes in the hot oven, until cheese is melted. Serve with ranch dressing on the side.
