French fried potatoes
French fries (
North America; sometimes also uncapitalized as "french fries"
[1] or simply "fries"
[2]), or chips (
United Kingdom,
Republic of Ireland, and most
Commonwealth nations), are pieces of
potato that have been cut into batons and
deep-fried. In areas where "chips" is the common term, "French fries" usually refers to the thinner variant found in US-influenced
fast food restaurants, or to the even thinner "shoestring potatoes". In North America "chips" generally means
potato chips (called "crisps" in the UK and Ireland), which are deep-fried very thin slices of potato that are usually served at room temperature. A more recent hybrid of thicker cross-cut splicings, and generally eaten hot, is "waffle-cut potatoes" (not to be confused with
potato waffles made from
reconstituted potato).
