Fries are deep-fried in vegetable oil and served with golden crusty outside texture while the inner texture is soft and white. French fries are not French in origin, but instead are referred to as French because of the way they are "Frenched" cut into thin strips. Very thin strips may be referred to as shoestring potatoes while the thicker strips are referred to as steak fries. In Britain, French fries are referred to as "chips" and in France as "pommes frites."
