2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 cups chopped yellow onions
salt
cayenne
2 lbs ground beef
1 tablespoon chili powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
crushed red pepper flakes
2 teaspoons dried oregano leaves
2 tablespoons chopped garlic
3 cups canned diced tomatoes
2 tablespoons tomato paste
3 cups beef broth
3 -4 tablespoons masa harina flour
1 (1/2 lb) bag frozen french fries or (1/2 lb) bag waffle-shaped French fries
1/2 lb grated cheddar cheese
1/2 lb grated monterey jack cheese
1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup sliced pickled jalapeno pepper

1
Season onions with salt and cayenne and saute, stirring, until they begin to wilt, about 2 minutes.
2
Add the beef, chili powder, cumin, red pepper, and oregano, season with salt and cayenne, and cook until meat is done (no pink).
3
Add garlic, tomatoes, tomato paste and 2-1/2 cups beef stock, bring to boil and reduce heat to medium-low.
4
Simmer uncovered about 1 hour, stirring occasionally and skimming fat that rises to the surface.
5
Combine masa harina flour with remaining 1/2 cup stock.
6
Slowly add to the pot, stirring to blend, which will thicken the mixture.
7
Cook for 30 minutes and correct seasoning.
8
From here, Emeril deep fries his own shoestring French fries, but I use frozen French fries or waffle fries to save time (and mess!).
9
Prepare frozen potatoes as package directs.
10
Lower oven heat to 400 degrees F, place fries in bottom of a large glass rectangular baking dish.
11
Sprinkle cheeses over the fries and bake for 3 to 4 minutes.

Remove pan from oven and spoon hot chili over the top of the fries.
