About Hranolky

Hranolky, or French fries, are thinly sliced potatoes cooked by frying, baking, or air-frying, and are a popular side dish in various cuisines, particularly Western and Central European cooking. Originating from Belgium and France, they are typically deep-fried in oil, contributing to their high fat content. Nutritionally, a standard serving contains approximately 312 calories, with 41g of carbohydrates, 15g of fat, and 3.4g of protein. They also provide fiber (3.8g) and small amounts of essential nutrients like iron, calcium, and vitamin C. However, due to their preparation method, they are often considered an energy-dense, less nutrient-dense food option.
