Oven Fries
- 6 cups (1 kg) russet potato wedges cut ½ inch (1.5 cm) thick, skin on
- 2 tbsp (30 ml) vegetable oil
Beef Barbecue Sauce
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 1 garlic clove, finely chopped
- 1 lb (450 g) lean ground beef
- 2 tbsp butter
- ¼ cup (40 g) unbleached all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp paprika

PREPARATION
Oven Fries
- With the rack in the middle position, preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Toss the potatoes with the oil on the prepared baking sheet and season with salt and pepper. Arrange the potatoes skin side down. Bake for 45 minutes or until golden brown.
Beef Barbecue Sauce
- Meanwhile, in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, brown the onion, garlic and beef in the butter. As the meat browns, break it up with a wooden spoon, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with the flour and paprika and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Add the broth, ketchup and Worcestershire sauce. Bring to a boil and simmer for 2 minutes or until the sauce has thickened. Adjust the seasoning.
- Serve the fries generously topped with cheese and sauce.
