Air Fryer French Fries

Crispy Air Fryer French Fries are a healthier way to enjoy your favorite fries without deep frying. Chloe from Sunday Flavor shares her simple method for perfectly golden and delicious fries.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large Russet potatoes
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Wash and scrub the potatoes.
  2. Cut the potatoes into 1/4-inch thick fries.
  3. Place the fries in a bowl and cover with cold water for 30 minutes.
  4. Drain the fries and pat them completely dry with a paper towel. This step is crucial for crispiness.
  5. In a clean bowl, toss the dried fries with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  6. Arrange the fries in a single layer in your air fryer basket. Do not overcrowd.
  7. Air fry at 380°F (190°C) for 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.

Notes

  • For extra crispy fries, soak them in ice water for at least 30 minutes.
  • Ensure the fries are thoroughly dried before adding oil and seasoning.
  • Do not overcrowd the air fryer basket; cook in batches if necessary for even cooking and crispiness.
  • Adjust cooking time based on your air fryer model.
