To make these disco fries, I started by placing some frozen crinkle cut French fries in a single layer on a parchment lined baking sheet.
I place the baking sheet in the oven and baked the fries until they were golden brown and crispy.
While the fries were cooking, I prepared the gravy.
I added some butter to a large saucepan over medium heat.
Once the butter was completely melted I added some minced shallot to the pan.
I also added some garlic puree to the pan.
I stirred the shallots and garlic together well.
I continued cooking the shallots for a few minutes.
Then I added some all purpose flour to the pan.
I stirred all of the ingredients together well.
I cooked the flour mixture, stirring frequently, until it started to brown slightly.
Then I added some beef broth to the pan.
I whisked well.
I added some Worcestershire sauce to the pan and whisked well again.
Then I brought the gravy to a boil.
I left the gravy to boil and thicken or a few minutes.
Then I reduced the heat to low.
When the French fries were golden brown, I removed the baking sheet from the oven.
Then I sprinkled some shredded mozzarella and cheddar cheese on top of the fries.
I returned the baking sheet to the oven for a couple of minutes just to melt the cheese.
Then I poured the gravy over the fries.
I sprinkled some chopped chives on top.
Then the cheesy fries with gravy were ready to serve.
