Wedding French Fries
Here’s another good ol’ favourite that’s made an impressive comeback to the wedding buffet tables. French fries are a universal favourite and ideal for soothing grumbling bellies after a long ceremony. Here are a couple of ways to serve them in a more creative fashion than the local drive-through:
With an interesting twist:
- Serve baked wedges instead of fries, or consider mixing potato with sweet potato chips.
- Instead of straight-cut American style fries, serve flat round chips, crinkle cut or or crunchy potato shavings, or go all out with potato twirls on a stick.
- Add fresh basil leaves or dust the fries with dried herbs for a more organic take on these contemporary fried bites.
- Serve ‘em up with mini milkshakes! If you’ve never dipped a fry in a milkshake, you simply haven’t lived.
- For a real South African wedding, serve mini portions of fish and chips on wooden boards, or serve them with mini hamburgers for a more authentic American style wedding.
In unique containers:
- Mini metal cans or branded cans, e.g. Koo, All Gold, Lucky Star, etc.
- Paper cones – newspaper, baking paper and patterned wax lined paper.
- Personalised little paper cups or McDonalds-shaped fries containers.
- Tall shot glasses or martini glasses with condiments resting in the bottom.
- Massive buckets of fries where guests can nibble and fill up smaller containers.
