French Fries + Pizza
Yep.
As usual, I was at work perusing Instagram, and as usual, I found this gem of a recipe. If there was any time to use the jazz hands emoji, this would be the time to use it! This recipe was inspired by one of my favorite food bloggers Half Baked Harvest's French Fry Pizza.
Both versions of this recipe can be adapted to any way you and yours like your pizza.
As for me and my man, we go for the basics. We ain't all that fancy. Pepperoni please!
What you will need:
3 russet potatoes
2 tbsp olive oil
Salt
Pepper
1 tsp oregano (divided)
Garlic Powder (to taste)
Salt
Pepper
1 tsp oregano (divided)
Garlic Powder (to taste)
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese
~ 1 1/2 cups pizza sauce (store bought or homemade)
pizza toppings of your choice
Step 1: Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
Step 2: Rinse the potatoes and dry. Cut the russet potatoes in the shape of french fries and add them to an ice bath. Let the potatoes sit in the ice bath for 10-15 minutes. This pulls out some of the starch in the potatoes allowing them to get extra crispy while baking.

Step 3: Take potatoes out of the water bath and dry well with a kitchen towel or paper towel.
Step 4: Place potatoes on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with oregano, salt, and pepper. Bake until crispy (approx. 30 min) turning half way through.
Step 5: Remove potatoes from oven and reduce the temperature of the oven to 350 degrees.
Step 6: In a baking dish, place a layer of french fries at the bottom of the pan roughly in the shape of a circle/pizza. Add a layer of mozzarella and parmesan cheese, pizza toppings and then pizza sauce. Repeat with another layer of french fries then cheeses, pizza toppings, and then pizza sauce. Add the final layer of french fries then add pizza sauce followed by the cheeses then pizza toppings (mimicking how a normal pizza is assembled).

Step 7: Bake until the cheese is golden and bubbly (approx. 15 min)
We added a side dish of left over pizza sauce to dunk our fries in! Yum Yum!
