Potatoes are usually oval or oblong in shape, with a brown or tan skin that is often covered in small eyes or blemishes. The flesh of a potato can be white, yellow, or purple, and is high in carbohydrates, fiber, and vitamin C. Potatoes are also a good source of potassium, vitamin B6, and iron.

Potatoes can be cooked in a variety of ways, including baking, boiling, frying, and roasting. They can be mashed, sliced, diced, or grated, and are commonly used in dishes such as fries, chips, potato salad, mashed potatoes, and stews. Potatoes are also used in many ethnic cuisines, such as Indian curries, Irish colcannon, and South American empanadas.
