Made just the fries and was really disappointed. The recipe didn’t mention whether it meant smoked paprika or sweet paprika, so I compromised and did half of each. (By the way, ‘cheddar’ was misspelled for the sauce.) The ‘fries’ didn’t crisp up whatsoever, which is basically the number 1 rule of fries. I even left them in the oven close to 15 minutes longer than called for (checking them throughout), and they still barely crisped at all. The texture was off-putting. And even though I followed the proportions for everything, they tasted a tad overly seasoned. Part of me wonders whether upping the amount of oil might have helped them crisp more, but I don’t know that it’s worth trying all this out again.
