Ingredients

Fries

  • 800g potatoes, cut into fries
  • 1 pack Tex-Mex spices

Topping

  • 1 pack streaky bacon, diced 1cm
  • 250g frozen corn
  • 1 tomato, diced 1cm
  • 1 spring onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 pack cheese, grated

Guacamole

  • 1 avocado
  • Juice of 1/2 lemon
  • 1 clove garlic, minced (optional)

To Serve

  • 125g sour cream
  • Sweet chilli sauce (optional)

Steps

  1. Preheat oven to 230°C. Prep & cook fries. On a lined oven tray, toss fries with Tex-Mex spices and a drizzle of oil. Season and bake for 25-30 minutes, until golden and crispy.
  2. Prep & cook topping. Heat a small drizzle of oil in a large fry-pan, on medium-high heat. Cook bacon for 5-6 minutes, until browned.
  3. Finish topping. Add corn to pan and cook for a further 2-3 minutes. Transfer cooked mixture to a large bowl and add tomato and spring onion. Toss well and season to taste.
  4. Melt cheese. When fries have finished cooking, remove tray from oven and turn oven to high grill. Separate fries on tray, into serving sizes. Top fries with bacon topping and sprinkle over cheese. Place tray on middle oven rack and grill for 3-5 minutes, until cheese has melted. Keep chips and veggies separate for fussy foodies.
  5. Prep guacamole. In a medium bowl, mash avocado with lemon juice and garlic. Season to taste.
  6. Serve loaded fries topped with guacamole and sour cream. Drizzle with sweet chilli sauce.
