Crispy Air Fryer Fries
Ingredients
  • 1 pound potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch sticks (straight or ruffle cut)
  • 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon seasoning (ideas below), or more to taste
Instructions
1
Immerse potatoes in water, allowing them to rehydrate for 30 minutes before draining and gently wiping them with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
2
Next, lightly anoint the potatoes with a generous amount of oil, ensuring they are evenly coated.
3
Then, preheat your air fryer to a scorching 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius), the ideal temperature for achieving that perfect crispiness.
4
Arrange the potatoes in a single layer, but not too tightly, as you want them to have enough room to cook evenly and develop that lovely golden brown color.
5
Continue cooking the potatoes, gently tossing them every 5 minutes to prevent them from becoming too brown or burnt.
6
This process should take around 15 to 20 minutes, at which point the potatoes will be perfectly cooked and golden brown.
7
Finally, sprinkle a pinch of salt over the potatoes to bring out their natural flavors and add any desired seasonings to give them an extra boost of flavor.
