Outback Steakhouse Aussie Fries
| Sorce | colos
| | Ingridients |
1 - 2 lb. bag of Frozen French Fries 1 Cup shredded Colby Jack cheese 6 pieces of Bacon, cooked 24 Fl. Oz. Peanut Oil (can be reused later; store in refrigerator)| Divide the fries into half, and use the other half later. Heat oil to 350 degrees. If you do not have a thermostat, make sure the oil is hot enough, so that when you set a french fry in there 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 of the skillet. ( 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 are done.
When all french fries are done cooking, and drained place them onto 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.
Dipping Sauce:
1/2 C. Sour Cream 1 Tbsp. Prepared Horseraddish dash Cayenne Pepper dash Salt dash black pepper
Combine all ingredients and mix well.

| | Ingridients |
4−6 Cups vegetable oil (in fryer) 1 package Pillsbury apple or cherry turnovers (Find them in the refrigerated section)|1. Unroll the Pillsbury turnover dough. You will have six 3"x3" pieces. You will use four of them. Stretch them out to about 4"x5" rectangles. Do this on waxed paper. 2. Spread 1/2 of the pie filling on one dough, and the other half on another, leaving about 1/2" of dough around edges. Clear a 3/4" space lengthwise down the middle of both. 3. Place the remaining two doughs on top of the two with the filling. Crimp the edges. You'll have what looks like two giant pop−tarts. 4. Cut both of them precisely down the middle, in that 3/4" space you created. Crimp those two edges. 5. Manipulate as needed to form an attractive, uniform shaped pie. They should look like small burritos, only crimped around the edges. 6. Place all four, flat on waxed paper, in the freezer. After about 45 minutes, spray all sides of each pie with water mist. Return to the freezer for at least another hour. 7. Place in a freezer bag and seal for future use, or get ready to deep−fry them. |
