Abstract

Reduced oil French fried potato products, which have a crisp exterior and a soft interior, are provided herein. The potato products of the invention are made by coating French fry potato pieces with polyvinylpyrrolidone to provide the potato pieces with increased resistance to oil absorption during frying. The finished product has about the same moisture content as uncoated products.
