Move over, boring sides—fries are taking over the plate. This crispy, golden, totally unhinged recipe collection proves one thing: anything can be a fry if you believe hard enough (and bring good dipping sauce). From OG French fries to zucchini sticks, squeaky halloumi fries, green beans, apples, and even spam—we’re tossing tradition out the window and frying outside the box.

Why Settle for Just Potatoes?


Air-fried? Of course. Oven-baked? You bet. Deep-fried? We don’t judge.

Whether you're into low-carb, gluten-free, or veggie-forward snacking, there's a fry with your name on it. Got picky eaters? Trying to survive game-day madness? Zucchini threatening to take over your fridge? There’s a fry for that.

Pro Fry-Tips You Didn’t Know You Needed

  • Soak first, crunch later – A cold water bath = ultra crispy fries.

Ready to embrace the chaos? These 22 homemade fry recipes are here to prove that fries aren’t just food—they’re a lifestyle. Fry hard, snack often, and never settle for limp sides again.
