02 - 3 tablespoons honey
03 - 3 tablespoons Sriracha sauce
04 - 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
05 - 1 tablespoon soy sauce

# Method:
01 - Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
02 - Arrange fries evenly on the prepared sheet. Bake according to package instructions or until golden and crisp, about 25–30 minutes.
