What ingredients do I need to make these Easy Air Fryer French Fries?

• Russet potatoes– cut into 1/4 inch pieces/strips.
• Olive oil and additional cooking spray- I like to toss in a little bit of olive oil along with spraying them with cooking spray to help them get nice and crispy.
• Coarse sea salt and black pepper-to taste

How do I make these Easy Air Fryer French Fries?

Using a vegetable chopper or sharp knife, slice the potatoes into 1/4 inch strips.

In a large bowl add cold ice water. Place the potatoes slices into the ice water bath. Completely submerging them in water.

Let fries sit one hour. This helps to remove excess starch and will help the fries crisp up more in the oven.

After the fries have sat in the water bath, drain the water

and pat fries dry with a paper towel.

Preheat air fryer to 390 degrees.

Toss the fries with olive oil and spray with nonstick cooking spray. Season with salt and pepper.

Add fries to bottom of air fryer basket, making sure they are in a single layer (try not to stack them on top of each other.)
You may need to do several batches depending on how big your air fryer is.

Cook for about 20 minutes or until crispy and golden brown.

Can these be cooked another way besides an air fryer?

Yes, These can be cooked in the oven. Cook at 425 for 20 to 25 minutes, flipping halfway.

What air fryer do I have and love?

I recently updated my air fryer this past Christmas and got myself the Quart Touchscreen Air Fryer, White Icing by Drew Barrymore! It’s my favorite! Not only is to beautiful-it has a high performance circular heat technology and nonstick crisping tray that promotes fast, crispy, evenly-cooked meals. A powerful 1700-watt system with stainless steel provides faster heat-up and cool-down times.

You can find it on AMAZON HERE.
