French Fries make/makes an excellent complement to hamburger.
Which verb should I use?
Many thanks.

1. What is your answer?
2. Why?
I think 'makes' because French Fries is a dish and should considered as singular.
Sorry, I disagree. A dish or plate of French fries is a singular item, but in the sentence you wrote, French fries are plural, and make a good complement to hamburger.
Personally, I hate food like that - it gives people heart disease.
French (capital F) fries (small f).
