About Papas fritas

Papas fritas, commonly known as French fries, are a popular dish originating in Belgium and widely associated with Western cuisine. Made from thinly sliced potatoes, they are typically deep-fried in oil until golden and crispy. Served as a side dish or snack, papas fritas are versatile and can be seasoned with salt, spices, or paired with sauces like ketchup, mayonnaise, or vinegar. Nutritionally, they are a source of carbohydrates and provide energy, but their health value depends on preparation. Deep frying increases calorie content and introduces unhealthy fats, while excessive salt can impact sodium levels. Opting for baked or air-fried versions can make them a lighter alternative. Rich in fiber and essential nutrients like potassium when minimally processed, papas fritas should be enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
