Cooked by immersing in or exposing to hot oil or fat until the outside is crispy and browned.

Where the word comes from

From Old English "frīed," the past tense of "frīan," meaning to fry or cook in hot fat. This verb likely comes from Old French "frire," which descended from Latin "frigere," meaning to roast or fry. The Latin root may connect to Proto-Indo-European words related to heat or burning, though the exact path remains uncertain.
