In-N-Out Copycat Animal Style Fries

 

Ingredients:

 

  • In-N-Out Inspired Special Sauce
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp ketchup
  • 1/2 tbsp rice vinegar or white vinegar
  • 2 tbsp sweet relish
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1/2 tbsp chili flakes optional
  • Main Ingredients
  • 1/2 bag frozen fries
  • cheddar cheese/American cheese
  • 2 onions diced
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 tbsp neutral oil
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Instructions:

  1. Melt butter in a pan over medium low heat and pour in neutral oil.
  2. Add the minced onions and salt to the pan.
  3. Stir every few minutes until the onions caramelize. If the onions look like its burning, turn down the heat. This will take at least 30 minutes or longer.
  4. Mix all the ingredients for the sauce and set aside.
  5. Bake/Fry the frozen fries per the package instructions.
  6. Once the fries are cooked, add grated cheddar cheese or sliced American cheese on top and broil for 3-5 minutes or until the cheese melts.
  7. Once the cheese melts, add the caramelized onions and pour the sauce on top and enjoy!

Notes:

*The In-N-Out sauce doesn’t use chili flakes but I added it in for some heat. It’s optional, it’s up to your preference.

*If it seems like the onions are burning, turn down the heat a little bit.

*Very important to keep stirring the onions.

*In-N-Out uses American cheese slices. I sometimes like to use shredded cheddar. Either one will work.
