curly fries

Coiled fried spuds

Curly fries are French fries cut in a spiral or corkscrew shape, typically seasoned with a spiced coating that gives them a distinctive orange color and peppery flavor.

The shape creates more surface area for crispiness.

They're a staple of fast-food chains and casual restaurants: I'll have a burger with curly fries.
