It would probably be difficult to find a person who could honestly admit that he doesn’t like fried potatoes: the dish is too perfect to evoke negative emotions.
It is usually accepted to deny ourselves pleasure for only one reason: it is too harmful for our figure and health.
Is this really true or is the dish simply "slandered"?
If you analyze the composition of potatoes, there is nothing bad there: the vegetable can even be called healthy for those who do not have weight problems.
However, the reason for the harmfulness is not in the potatoes themselves, experts note.
When heated, potatoes lose almost all of their valuable properties. There is also an opinion that frying potatoes contributes to the appearance of carcinogenic substances in the dish.
Also, due to vegetable oil, the dish turns out fatty. As a result, the cardiovascular system and digestive organs may suffer.
Therefore, the conclusion is obvious: the dish is indeed harmful.
If you have a good figure and no health problems, then you can occasionally treat yourself to a treat.
In all other cases, it is better to cook potatoes in the oven or stew them. In this case, they will be more useful.
