Calling it French Fries in the Belgium community is quite the risk you're taking.

And mayonaise of course. Nothing beats mayonaise.

I like living dangerously!

Mayonnaise, only with stoofvlees

Friends for life

Edit: Pili-Pili is also acceptable

I really hate how hard it is to get in Germany.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

If you pay for the product and shipping I'll send it. Don't think it is worth it though 😛 Does lemmy already have a snackexchange?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Mayonnaise is the only acceptable answer. Everyone else is lying to themselves

I know this is for Belgians but Malt Vinegar simply cannot be beat

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I mean, look into the insane amount of sauces available. Even if you say it can't be beat you could try them all and discover things you can add to what you already like. Most Belgians don't just stick to one sauce.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Can you tell me where you are from so I know where to never ever ever go?

Nah to each his own I guess but that doesn't seem like something I would try.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Andalouse of course

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

If I had to rank them:

  1. Mayonaise

  2. Tomato ketchup

  3. Béarnaise sauce

  4. Tartar sauce (which is actually based on mayonaise)

...

  1. Everything else

Sorry to that one guy who posted about using some kind of vinegar on his fries but lemmy.world had to roll back and we lost 30 minutes of comments/posts.

This is the way

You're Dutch. So follow-up question: Which one?

Zoete Hollandse bucht of Echte goeie Belgische met ei?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Zoete Hollandse bucht!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Mayo, though I've dabbled in ketchup and curry ketchup as well, especially mixed with mayo.

Unless it's friet stoofvlees, the only acceptable answer is mayo.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I tried tartar sauce last time and it's now my new favorite

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

"Pommes Schranke", mayonnaise and ketchup.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (2 children)

TIL :-)

Personally I would never mix sauces. IMO you have to make a choice ;-)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's a sad amount of sauce. I can still see fries :D

But you haven't tried "frit special" yet - Mayo/Ketchup/Onion?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The Onions: roasted or fresh?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

They should be fresh, although I've seen versions with roasted ones too.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I love it.

Interestingly it tastes much better like this than a Single premixed sauce made from mayo and ketchup.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Mayonaise, nothing else than home made mayonaise

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Mayo for life!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

The most spicy available, usually samourai but my local friture has a lovely special spicy american sauce

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I have to admit I really like joppie sauce when I'm going for fries, but I regularly switch it up depending on what I'm looking for, so regular ketchup, samurai or andalouse all get their share.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Ketchup and mayo

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Tomato sauce or gtfo

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Friet speciaal. Ketchup, mayo and raw diced onion.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

HP Sauce <3

Recently, I've discovered gravy and cheese curds, courtesy of our (USA) lovely northern neighbors. Seriously, poutine is fuckin' bangin'!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

That looks greasy as hell. I would try it! I heard of Poutine before but I thought it was a combination of a russian dictator and a french prostitute

It's a spicy sauce. Mayonnaise-based but with chillies.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Interesting, thanks.

Is it what you get when you milk a samurai?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Don't tell him about mammoetsaus, people

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

The best sauce is no sauce, I eat them all natural

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Utah Fry Sauce

50% Ketchup

50% Mayo

. . . I'll show myself out...

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

😋 Mustard!! 💛 🍟 💛

Now that we upgraded to Lemmy 0.18.1 here at Lemmy World allow me: 🤢

That's for bratwurst and hotdogs.
