Okay guys today on Chris Does What? We're going to use this Cuisinart to make
0:06
waffle fries and you know it's Chris Does What but Danielle does it better. So
0:15
let's get to it. Okay, so you, well I microwave the potato so that you can have it cooked because you
0:40
don't want to stick raw potato in there. And you cut them into coins
0:49
So I'm going to do like cut it in half and maybe three out of there
1:01
And then next I'm going to brush them with oil and a little bit of salt and then we're
1:10
going to put them on there. The oil is right here. Here's the salt
1:20
We're using all natural sea salt and we're using some kind of special organic oil
1:28
No, it's just 100% pure olive oil. If you use a lot of olive oil, you need to know that there's a lot of oils out there
1:38
that are made with other oils that are not good for you
1:43
And I found out that after about two years of using the wrong oils
1:48
and realizing it was upping our cholesterol. Making me fluffy. So I had to research
1:57
and this is one of the brands, California, which is 100% pure
2:03
So I'm just gonna brush them. This will help with a crisp because, you know, that is our goal is to get them kind of like more like fries
2:15
Fries without the frying. Well, I mean, olive oil, you know, use it
2:22
I use it almost every day but not in like a lot of amounts I mean I only using about that instead of like two tablespoons or something So she lightly brushing it to reduce our fat content
2:40
No, so that can crisp them up. And so her husband's not fluffy
2:46
And then I'm just going to sprinkle just a little bit of salt because we don't do too much around here
2:54
Salt makes the body retain water. Actually, I want to put some in my hand because I don't want to put too much salt on it. Yes
3:03
Just like sprinkle it. Nothing like having extra water retention. Oh guys, don't have to hold my beer this time
3:11
She's got this. We're still waiting on this to get green. and for main course we're going to be doing broccoli and chicken so no the main course is
3:28
grilled chicken and we're doing a side of broccoli oh I'm sorry non-cook non-cook here but you know
3:36
very healthy meal and keep keep keep you a little trimmer you know this is really taking a long
3:42
time. Is it plugged in? Yeah, it's hot. It's getting there. It's because I turned it up to the highest
3:49
to get it the highest crispiness that we can get it because it is a waffle maker
3:58
And if this doesn't crisp enough, my wife was talking about putting it in the oven
4:03
Alright, so that means they are both ready. I already have some oil in here from the other day, but these are already oiled so we should be fine
4:17
We're just going to put them on there. They're already sizzling. Smells yummy
4:25
And then I'm basically just going to smush them down. I do it slowly because I don't really want to break it
4:38
Okay, waffle fries have been smushed. Now this is a double Belgium waffle maker, so we can do both sides
4:51
I didn oil this side yet so I just put a little bit in there because I only have There two left that 2 left Pure yumminess
5:08
I have already had some of these. They are really good. I cheated. Sorry
5:18
Then you wait for the green light. It is because I only have half of it on
5:24
So I'll just switch it over. Well, when this green light goes off
5:29
should I a little bit longer in there, the green light? It'll go off. It just is because I've been, well, it's probably because that side's heated
5:40
I'm still experimenting with this. I mean, this, my son makes waffles in it almost every morning
5:47
and I've been using it for other things, like experimenting with white fries
5:53
and what was I trying to do the other day? It didn't work out
5:57
Oh, yeah, we did some, we mushed up some taters in the kitchen
6:02
Yeah, I should have added more flour, but that was a disaster
6:06
so learn your lesson. But, hey, that's how you learn. She's back
6:13
Well, that one says it's done. Let's see what it's doing. It's not, though
6:17
That human never went off. What do we have? Let's see what it's doing
6:30
See it's getting crispy, but I don't think it's crispy enough so I'm going to squish
6:35
them back in there. We should wait for this side to go off because the other light didn't deilluminate because
6:47
there's not much over there. So as soon as this goes off we'll check this side, see how it looks, and then we can go
6:54
through and check the other side. She stomped her toe on my foot
6:59
I know, because I'm going to cut up more taters. He's in the way. Yay, taters
7:03
I'm always in the way. Is that on? Oh, there it goes
7:07
You can check. I'll let you do that. I'll let him do the special job. Yes, for the special ed
7:11
I'm going to cut it off. I'm going to cut it off. I'm going to cut it off. I'm going to cut it off
7:15
I'm going to cut it off. I'm going to cut it off. I'm going to cut it off. Here's the special ed
7:22
Ooh, they have grill marks on them. Ooh, that's hot. Ouch. So you see the special grill marks Is that done or do you want to try again I think they done If you want them more crispy I was thinking about popping them in the oven and just you
7:41
know roasting them a little bit maybe for about I don't know five minutes or
7:46
whatever but a waffle maker is only gonna crisp them up so much so I'll pop
7:57
these suckers out. I'm going to have to check the chicken. I've been so busy doing this I forgot the
8:03
chickens on the grill up. Yeah see I'm probably going to pop them in the oven to make them more crispier
8:21
But we just did this because it's like we like to do different things with
8:25
potatoes they get boring so so if you want to make your own waffle fries really
8:35
simple in the Belgian waffle maker and you know it's quick fast give you some
8:43
diversity with this one a utensil in your kitchen like she said if you want
8:49
to crisp them up a little bit more because these are too crisp just pop them
8:55
in the microwave. She also did put these in the microwave before we put them in here to
9:03
make them softer so you could smush them down. Now if you want to crisp them up you pop them
9:07
in the oven, not the microwave. The oven, not the microwave. The microwave will make them all soggy
9:13
So if you want more soggy you pop them in the microwave. If you want a little bit more crispy
9:18
you pop them in the oven. And like I said she did microwave these to make them softer before
9:24
we started this video. I should have led with that. I don't think you should boil them
9:30
Just cooking the potato is all you need to there. Okay, so she says we're done. If you like this channel, please subscribe. If you like this video
