Instructions

French fries

  1. Rinse the potatoes, peel them and rinse them again. Dry them well in a cloth.
  2. Cut the potatoes into French fries, regular width and length, about ½ inch (1 cm) thick.
  3. Dry the potato sticks with a cloth again.
  4. Melt the beef fat in a fryer and then heat to 140°C (280 F).
  5. Fill the cooking basket with fries, without packing them too much, then immerse the basket in the frying bath for 6 minutes.
  6. Shake the basket a little during frying to prevent the fries from sticking together. They should be golden and cooked to the core but will still be a little soft.
  7. Drain the fries by shaking them over the fryer, and allow them to cool completely before the second fry.
  8. After or towards the end of the cooking of the meat, plunge the fries back into the frying bath heated to 350 F (180°C) for 2 to 3 minutes, shaking the basket regularly so that the cooking is homogeneous.
  9. As soon as they are colored, drain them and place them in a bowl covered with absorbent paper. Season with salt.

Kapsalon

  1. Preheat the oven to 450 F (220 ° C).
  2. Heat the oil in a non-stick pan and sauté the meat for about 8 minutes over medium to high heat, stirring regularly so that it browns evenly. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. Place the fries at the bottom of a baking dish and cover with a layer of meat. Sprinkle with Gouda and bake for 5 minutes or until the cheese melts.
  4. Take the kapsalon out of the oven.
  5. Arrange cucumbers, tomatoes and lettuce on top. Drizzle with garlic sauce and sambal to taste.
  6. Serve hot.
