Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 450°F.
  • Cut the potatoes into fries and place on a baking sheet. Toss with the olive oil, Korean chili powder (or paprika), and salt and pepper to taste.
  • Bake for 45 minutes, flipping fries over once or twice while cooking. Meanwhile, prep your toppings.
  • In a pan over medium heat, cook the bacon until crisp. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  • Add the Classic Kimchi to the bacon fat* in the pan along with the sliced onion and sugar.
  • Stir until caramelized, 10 minutes.
  • In a baking dish or directly on the baking sheet, sprinkle half the cheese over the fries.
  • Spread the kimchi mixture over that, and then top with the last of the cheese.
  • Broil for 1-2 minutes until cheese is melted. Garnish with scallions.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

*Instead of using bacon and bacon fat, you can use a tablespoon of oil and tofu or another meat substitute seasoned with the Korean chili powder for a vegetarian dish.
