Crispy Coated Cajun Fries

Recipesfull introduces to you: Mardi Gras Recipes. (Crispy Coated Cajun Fries). Potatoes are coated in a spicy mixture of corn flour and Cajun seasoning then deep fried until crispy. Very simple and really crunchy. I like mine extra spicy so I soak my cut potatoes in hot sauce for a few seconds before shaking them in the dry batter.
