Home fries (US), house fries (US), American fries (US), fried potatoes (UK and regional US) or bistro potatoes (southeastern US) are a type of basic potato dish made by pan- or skillet-frying chunked, sliced, wedged or diced potatoes that are sometimes unpeeled and may have been par-cooked by boiling, baking, steaming, or microwaving.[1][2] They are sometimes served as a substitute for hash browns and in Canada may be referred to by that name.
In North America, home fries are popular as a breakfast side dish.[3]
