🥔 Homemade Air Fryer Chips (Fries)

Ingredients:

• 2–3 large potatoes (e.g., Maris Piper, Russet)

• 1–2 tbsp olive oil

• Salt, pepper, and optional seasonings (paprika, garlic powder, etc.)

Instructions:

1. Prep the potatoes:

   • Peel (optional) and cut into chips (around 1 cm thick).

   • Soak in cold water for 20–30 minutes to remove excess starch (this helps crisp them up).

   • Drain and pat completely dry with a towel.

2. Season:

   • Toss in a bowl with olive oil, salt, and any seasonings you like.

3. Air fry:

   • Preheat air fryer to 190°C (375°F).

   • Spread chips in a single layer in the basket (work in batches if needed).

   • Cook for 15–20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.

   • If not golden/crispy, cook 3–5 minutes more.

4. Serve hot with ketchup, mayo, or your dip of choice.
