ยฟ๐ ๐พ๐ฎ ๐ฑ๐ช๐ ๐น๐ช๐ป๐ช ๐๐ฎ๐ท๐ช๐ป? (HarpoSF simple-style)

I came up with this dish many years ago when I was just going to have some French fries for dinner, but felt it needed something "๐๐ ๐ ๐๐ธ๐ ๐๐ถฬ๐".
I simply bake standard French fries about 3/4 of the way to being done and then I transfer them to an oven-safe bowl (I usually use a bowl that originally had a small Christmas Pudding [๐๐ฎ๐ฝ๐ฝ๐๐ผ, anyone?] in it, so I know it can stand the heat) that I have sprayed with a non-stick cooking oil (I like the Pam Olive Oil one best). Then what I do is layer half of the amount of French fries at the bottom of the bowl, lay a slice of cheese on top of that (tonight was Cheddar on both the middle and top layers, but it is also fun to mix-and-max different slices of cheese, too), on top of the first slice of cheese I dollop (for lack of a better word [is that even a real verb?]) some salsa or hot sauce (usually enough to cover the entire slice of cheese) ~ tonight I used a good local pre-made salsa (see link below), then layer the rest of the fries on top of that, add another slice of cheese, and finish it off with more salsa/hot sauce (sometimes I even use two different hot sauces on the different layers... I seem to have an awful lotta bottles of hot sauce in my refrigerator). I then pop the bowl back in the oven for about 5-10 minutes, just enough time to melt the two layers of cheese and incorporate the salsas into the mess, too.
And, as the Mexicans say: "โฐ๐ ๐๐๐พ๐๐ถ!" (well, if these Mexicans happened to be living in Paris or such... )
You will need to click on "Products" and scroll down to the "Most Delicious Fresh Salsa!" section, and then scroll over to their Medium Fresh Roasted salsa to see which one I used tonight. (Their web-site is not half as good as their chips and salsas.)
These guys started out as a simple Mexican restaurant in San Francisco. Their salsas and chips were so tasty that they decided to start producing those for sale at local grocery stores. That business ended up being so productive that they closed their original shops in town (sadly).
Back in the 90's, they had a promotion going that if you got a tattoo with their logo of "the Little Guy Riding the Ear of Corn", you got a free burrito for life anytime you visited one of their locations. Of course, now there are many grandparents trying to explain to their grandkids just how much of an id*oit they were for doing so. (And, yes, I actually knew/know a few of these "id*ots"... )
(See? It is not that I "can not cook"; I just "can not cook normal".)
