Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef
1 potatoes, peeled and chopped ( 1/2-inch squares, like homefries)
2 cups vegetable oil or 2 cups canola oil
1/3 cup water
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon cajun seasoning ( Tony Chachere’s is my favorite)
1 cup cheddar cheese or 1 cup Mexican blend cheese, shredded
Directions:
Heat oil to medium high heat and fry potato pieces until crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside, like homefries. Drain on a paper towel.
Meanwhile, in a seperate skillet, brown ground beef until done through. Drain well.
Return beef to skillet and add water, chili powder, cumin and cajun seasoning. Stir to make a taco sauce.
Add potatoes and stir until sauce coats potatoes.
Add cheese and stir until melted. Serve immediately.
