About A quarter of a cup of fries

A Quarter of a Cup of Fries offers a small portion of this classic snack or side dish, commonly associated with fast food and Western cuisine, particularly American and Belgian origins. Made from thinly sliced and fried potatoes, this serving usually contains around 50-60 calories, depending on preparation methods and added seasonings or oil. Fries are a source of carbohydrates and provide a small amount of potassium, which supports muscle and nerve function. However, they are typically low in protein and fiber while being high in fat and sodium, especially if heavily salted or fried in oil. Opting for a smaller quantity, like a quarter cup, can help manage portion control, making it a more mindful indulgence. For a healthier alternative, consider baked or air-fried versions that reduce the fat content significantly while retaining their satisfying texture and flavor.
