Notes

Portion. A portion of Five Guys Cajun French Fries is exactly 568g and 1300 calories. We also cooked 568g worth of potatoes for an even match.
Flavour. I find that you get the best flavouring from your Cajun rub if you include Cajun, Mexican, mixed spice and coriander.
Spice. Sometimes I also add spiced potato rub too. Though a lot of it is down to personal preference. At Five Guys they season and shake last after cooking their fries.
With our Air Fryer version we season before cooking. This adds the crunchy flavour and also because deep frying is some what different to air frying.
