Kroger Crinkle Cut Potato Fries
What it is
These are frozen potato fries cut with a wavy edge. They are made from potatoes and are intended to be cooked until crispy. The crinkle cut shape helps them hold seasoning and creates a pleasing texture. They are a convenient side dish option for many meals.
How people cook with it
These fries are a versatile addition to many meals. They can be served as a side or incorporated into other dishes.
- Side dish for burgers

To cook these fries, preheat your oven or air fryer according to package directions. Spread the frozen fries in a single layer on a baking sheet or in the air fryer basket. Bake or air fry until they are golden brown and crispy, turning them halfway through for even cooking. Season with salt or your favorite spices after cooking. They are best served immediately while hot and crisp.
How it differs from similar foods
The crinkle cut distinguishes these fries from straight-cut or shoestring varieties. This shape provides more surface area for crisping and helps them retain their texture better. The ridges also create a more interesting mouthfeel and can hold dips more effectively.
