Ingredients

  • 6 medium potatoes scrubbed and cut into 1/4-inch sticks
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil for coating
  • 1 teaspoon salt to enhance flavor

Instructions

  • Start by scrubbing the potatoes thoroughly under running water. Cut the potatoes into 1/4-inch sticks.
  • For extra crispy fries, soak the cut potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes, then drain and pat dry.
  • In a large bowl, toss the cut potatoes with olive oil and salt until well-coated. Add other seasonings if desired.
  • Preheat your air fryer to 380°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes.
  • Place the seasoned potato sticks in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook for 15-20 minutes, shaking halfway through.
  • Check for doneness; they should be golden brown and crispy. Add 2-3 more minutes if desired.
  • Carefully remove the fries from the air fryer and serve hot.
