French Fries One Cup is a classic side dish originating from Belgian and French cuisines, now beloved worldwide. Made by cutting potatoes into thin strips, these are deep-fried until crisp and golden. Traditionally prepared with oil, the fries have a crispy texture and a satisfying flavor, making them a popular companion to burgers, sandwiches, or dipping sauces. One cup typically contains around 150-200 calories, providing carbohydrates for energy. While potatoes offer some fiber and vitamin C, French fries are high in fat, especially if fried in oil, which can contribute to excess calorie intake. Sodium content may also be elevated if seasoned with salt. To enjoy them more healthily, consider baking instead of frying or opting for lighter oil choices. Portion control is key to balancing their delicious appeal with nutritional awareness.
