Chili "Cheese" Fries

Chili "Cheese" Fries

Get into my mouth.

Chili "Cheese" Fries.  Is there a more perfect merger of the anti-food groups?  No vegan should have to suffer though a life without this staple food and thanks to miracles in modern fake cheese science, they wont have to.  It's quick to make and pretty much impossible to mess up.

Caution: These directions make enough for two big servings.  I advise you share with someone or plan some time for a nap.

The Fries

Any kind of fries will due.  I used a whole bag of frozen crinkle-cuts because I am lazy and the crinkles are all wiggly and that makes me happy.  You could slice up some fresh gourmet potatoes and lightly saute them in oil, garnishing with some rosemary... But you are going to be pouring a pile a cheese and shit all over them so freezer fries are probably best.

Follow whatever directions for your fries, keeping in mind that if you want them to have any texture under the mountain of sauce, crisper is better.

The Cheese Sauce

This cheese sauce is one of the greatest advances in vegan science in our generation. Originally inspired by the nacho cheese used by the Vegan Black Metal Chef's nacho and taco recipe.

Just heat up about a cup of your favourite non-dairy milk (unsweetened tends to taste the least weird in this kind of sauce) in a small sauce pan. Once hot, reduce heat and stir in about 2/3rds of a package of your favourite flavour of Daiya shreds, black pepper, Sriracha and whatever other spices you have laying around.

This stuff is going to need to simmer for a while and needs constant stirring.  You just need to simmer and stir until it is smooth and thick.

The Chili

Any kind of chili will do. I took the path of least resistance and used canned.

Directions: Make it hot.

Fresh Toppings

Now, as with all vegan food, you have to make it fresh and healthy. This can be achieved by futilely topping your sticky, greasy, salty mass of gluttony with freshly chopped green onions.  You could also use some finely chopped bell peppers, chilies or maybe some vegan margarine and potato chips.

Assembly

When everything is ready, lay out the fries in a bowl or dish. Layer on some chili, cheese sauce and toppings. You can then continue to layer in this order until you fill your bowl shamefully high.

Proceed to pig out and crash.
