🍟 Air Fryer Chips (Fries Style)
Golden, crispy, and easy — with little to no oil!
🍽️ Serves: 2–3
⏱️ Prep Time: 10 min | Cook Time: 20–25 min
🧂 Ingredients
-
2 large russet potatoes (or Yukon Golds)
-
1–2 tsp olive oil (optional, for extra crispness)
-
Salt, to taste
-
Optional seasonings: garlic powder, paprika, black pepper, chili powder, rosemary
🔪 Instructions
1. Prep the Potatoes
-
Wash and peel (or leave skins on for rustic style).
-
Slice into even strips (about 1/4-inch thick) or thin rounds for crispier chip-style.
-
Soak in cold water for 15–30 minutes to remove excess starch (for crispier results).
-
Drain and pat very dry with a clean towel.
2. Season
-
Toss the potato slices with olive oil, salt, and any desired seasonings in a bowl.
3. Air Fry
-
Preheat air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
-
Arrange chips in a single layer (work in batches if needed).
-
Air fry for 10 minutes, then shake the basket or flip them.
-
Continue cooking another 10–15 minutes, checking every 5 minutes until golden and crispy.
4. Serve
-
Serve hot, sprinkled with a bit of salt or a dusting of seasoning (e.g., parmesan, Cajun spice, or vinegar powder).
🍔 Serving Ideas
-
Great with burgers, sandwiches, grilled chicken, or on their own with ketchup, aioli, or ranch.
🔄 Variations
-
Sweet Potato Chips – Use the same method but reduce cooking time slightly.
-
Crinkle Cut or Wedge-Style – Just adjust slicing thickness and increase cook time.
-
No-oil version – Skip the oil, but note they may be slightly drier and less golden.
