Instructions

Preheat oven to 450°F and line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.

Cut russet potatoes into 1/2-inch thick fries and soak in cold water for 30 minutes.

Drain potatoes thoroughly and pat completely dry with paper towels for crispiness.

Toss dried fries with vegetable oil and voodoo seasoning blend until evenly coated.

Arrange fries in single layer on prepared baking sheets, not overcrowding for even cooking.

Bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping once halfway through until golden and crispy.

Meanwhile, heat olive oil in cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.

Add sliced andouille sausage and cook until browned and crispy on both sides.

Remove sausage and set aside, leaving rendered fat in skillet for vegetables.

Add holy trinity vegetables (onion, bell pepper, celery) to same skillet with sausage fat.

Sauté vegetables for 8-10 minutes until softened and lightly caramelized throughout.

Add minced garlic and jalapeños, cook for additional 2 minutes until fragrant.

For cheese sauce, melt butter in large saucepan over medium heat until foaming.

Whisk in flour and cook for 2-3 minutes to create blonde roux without browning.

Gradually whisk in milk and cream, cooking until thickened and smooth throughout.

Remove from heat and gradually stir in shredded cheeses until completely melted.

Season cheese sauce with Cajun seasoning, hot sauce, and liquid smoke for depth.

Prepare remoulade by whisking together mayonnaise, Creole mustard, and all spices until smooth.

Arrange crispy seasoned fries on large serving platter in generous, overlapping layers.

Top fries with sautéed holy trinity vegetables and crispy andouille sausage pieces.

Drizzle warm voodoo cheese sauce generously over entire platter of loaded fries.

Add dollops of spicy remoulade sauce throughout for tangy heat contrast.

Sprinkle with crispy bacon bits, fresh parsley, chives, and green onions for color.

Dust lightly with voodoo dust seasoning and serve immediately while hot and crispy.
