minus-squareSlopppyEngineer@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up48·2 年前I think home fries is when you cut the potato in cubes and wedges (the recipe says 1 inch chunks) and then fry them.
minus-squareGrayBackgroundMusic@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up17·2 年前Almost. Home fries, in my area, are flatter. So 1*1 square but 1/2 to 1/4 tall.
minus-squareSlopppyEngineer@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up9·2 年前Those are baked in a skillet, not fried, says the cookbook. But YMMV.
minus-squareSlopppyEngineer@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up8·2 年前That’s called country fries here.
minus-squaredevnull406@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up23·2 年前Well when you live in the country, they’re home fries.
minus-squareMeaanBeaan@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up19·2 年前Depends on where you’re eating honestly. Some places call long flat fries home fries and other places call just like cubed fried potatoes home fries. Basically any fried potatoe shape that’s not shoestring French fries might be called “home fries”.

We just call those chunky chips.
Isn’t that called “country potatoes”?
