First of all, let's start by peeling the potatoes. We continue by washing them under the tap and drying them with a clean kitchen towel or with a piece of paper. We cut them into sticks as evenly as possible.
In a frying pan or a deep fryer if available, pour a good amount of oil, enough to cover them. As soon as the oil is hot, add the potatoes. Fry until golden brown and crispy.
Once ready, remove them with a skimmer to a plate with absorbent kitchen paper. In this way, we will remove the excess oil. Then transfer them to a baking dish and cover them with the cheese of your choice.
With the oven previously preheated to 180ºC, bake for 5 to 10 minutes. Just enough time for the cheese to melt. If you want the top to be golden brown, add 5 more minutes with the broiler. Once ready, serve piping hot.
