Straight-Cut Fries are a classic side dish made from fresh potatoes, typically of the Russet variety. The potatoes are peeled, sliced into uniform strips, and deep-fried until golden and crispy. Originating from Belgium and popularized in French cuisine, they’ve become a worldwide favorite. Straight-Cut Fries often contain three basic ingredients: potatoes, vegetable oil for frying, and salt for seasoning. While they provide essential nutrients like potassium and dietary fiber from the potatoes, their nutritional profile depends on cooking methods. Deep-fried versions are higher in calories, saturated fats, and may contain trans fats depending on the oil used, making them less heart-healthy. Opting for baked or air-fried preparations can significantly reduce fat content while keeping their crisp texture intact. Straight-Cut Fries are best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet, paired with healthier accompaniments like fresh veggies or lean proteins.
