deep-fried foods

Crispy greasy snacks

Foods cooked by submerging in hot oil or fat, producing a crispy exterior and moist interior.

The category includes staples like french fries, doughnuts, and fried chicken, as well as regional specialties and fair-food novelties—deep-fried Oreos, deep-fried butter.
