Lamb Weston Supreme Crosscut Skin-On Fries
What it is
These are thick-cut potato fries with the skin left on. They are made from whole potatoes, cut into a substantial crosscut shape. The skin provides a rustic texture and adds to the overall flavor of the potato. They are designed to be cooked from frozen, offering convenience for home cooks.
How people cook with it
These fries are a versatile side dish that pairs well with many meals. They can be prepared in various ways to suit different tastes and cooking methods.
- As a side for burgers
- With fried chicken
- Alongside fish and chips
- As a base for loaded fries
To prepare these fries, preheat your oven or air fryer to the recommended temperature. Spread the frozen fries in a single layer on a baking sheet or in the air fryer basket. Cook for the specified time, flipping halfway through, until they are golden brown and crispy. For baking, a higher oven temperature often yields a crispier result. In an air fryer, they cook more quickly and can achieve excellent crispness with less oil.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to standard shoestring fries, these crosscut fries are much thicker, resulting in a softer interior and a chewier texture. The skin-on preparation also differentiates them from peeled fries, offering a more natural potato flavor and a slightly rougher exterior.
Who it is for
Home cooks looking for a hearty and satisfying potato side dish will appreciate these fries.
How to keep the rest
After opening the package, store any unused fries in the original bag, ensuring it is tightly sealed to prevent freezer burn. Keep them in the freezer until ready to cook. Proper storage helps maintain their quality and texture for future use.
