What is the difference between potato fries and sticks?
Fries are always cut into the same size pieces, but sticks are cut into different sizes (and sometimes shapes), and they also have a different recipe. So if you’re serving fries as appetizers, a standard serving size should include enough fries for all guests at the table. But if you serve fries as a side dish for a burger, then you need a slightly smaller portion of fries per guest because they’ll be served as an accompaniment to the burger.
In a nutshell, potato fries are the most basic and traditional type. They come with ketchup and salt, and are easy to eat. Potato sticks, on the other hand, are prepared differently and have a stronger flavor.
Equipment
Ingredients
- 3 potatoes
- ½ cup corn flour
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp pepper
For frying
- cooking oil
Instructions
- First peel the potatoes, cut them into 4 and place them in a pot to make the crispy potato sticks.
- After adding the salt, cover it with water, bring it to a boil, and then remove the lid.
- You can occasionally check with a fork. Take our softened potatoes and place them in a different mixing bowl.
- Let's use a potato masher to mash them.
- With a spatula, combine the starch and black pepper with the mixture.
- Grab some baking paper from the table. On top of it, spread out our potato mixture and cover with more baking paper.
- Then, using a rolling pin, spread out our mixture. Our medium-thick mixture will be covered with the baking paper, which will then be cut into strips.
- Finally, let's fry our potato combination in the form of strips, from back to front, in heated oil.
- Ready to serve, enjoy!

What goes best with potato sticks?
Now that I’ve told you the best part, let me tell you how to make it the best part. First of all, make sure that the potato sticks come with dipping sauce. If you don’t have any, make your own with ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise, ranch dressing, honey, or anything else you feel will compliment them. Second, dip the potato sticks in the sauce, and eat them while talking about something that happened to you that day.
