French Fries
Cut the potatoes into thin french fries. Soak them in cold water for 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 475° F.
Drain the french fries and pat them dry.
In a large bowl, combine everything.
On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, lay out the french fries evenly. Make sure none of them overlap.
Bake them for 10 minutes, stir them, and bake them for an additional 10 minutes. Add time if they're not done enough. Every oven is different so make sure to keep an eye on them so they don't burn!
Assembly
Leaving the cooked fries on the baking sheet, drizzle the crema, sprinkle the cheese, and sprinkle the cilantro on top.
Broil in the oven 2-3 additional minutes.
