Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Wash and peel the potatoes, then slice them into ¼-inch thick fries.
Place the sliced potatoes in a large bowl. Drizzle them with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt, ground cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, and paprika.
Toss the fries until evenly coated with the oil and spices.
Arrange the fries in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the fries are golden brown and crispy.
Once the fries are cooked, remove them from the oven and immediately sprinkle them with shredded cheddar cheese.
Return the fries to the oven for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
Remove the nacho fries from the oven and top with diced tomatoes, sliced jalapeños, chopped green onions, and fresh cilantro.
Serve immediately with a side of sour cream for dipping.
