Make them at home

For big batches of fries, consider using a French Fry Cutter such as this to save time and to get even cuts and sizes.

If you want to make them the old fashioned way, use a deep fryer or a deep pot for frying, and don’t skimp on the oil! Use paper towels laid on baking sheets to absorb excess oil and help keep French fries crisp.

Want great-tasting but WAY healthier fries? Bake or air fry them! Try The Best Air Fryer French Fries Recipe or Loaded Fries in the Air Fryer. If using frozen fries, see these Air Fryer Frozen French Fries.

On Keto? Try these Air Fryer Avocado Fries or EASY Air Fryer Zucchini Fries.

Serve your fries with The BEST Fry Sauce,  ketchup, or your favorite dips or seasonings.
