In my experience, the main difference between home fries and French fries is in the preparation and texture. Home fries are typically diced or chunked potatoes that are pan-fried and often seasoned with onions and peppers, while French fries are thinly sliced, deep-fried, and usually just salted.

I think the seasoning is different too. Home fries often have a savory mix of spices, while French fries are usually just salted though
