Ingredients
- 1 16 oz bag Shoestring french fries See notes for cook time for other fry types
- 2 teaspoon olive oil
- salt to taste
Instructions
- Spray your basket with cooking spray (I like to use coconut oil spray so it does not damage the basket.) Air fry at 400F for 13-15 minutes for shoestring fries (additional fry cuts time and temperature listed in recipe card), shaking a few times during cooking.
- Carefully remove hot fries from basket and drizzle with 2 teaspoon olive oil and salt to taste. Use a spatula or tongs to carefully coat the fries and serve immediately.
Notes
- If you do not have a rotating basket be sure to shake the basket a few times (at least once, halfway) during cooking.
- Oil & season fries after they cook and serve immediately for ultimate freshness, texture and deep fried (but healthier!) taste.
- Adjust the cooking time as needed for thicker fries (they make take longer) or thinner fries (they make take less time).
- Salt fries after air frying to maintain crispiness.
- Serve hot with ketchup, fry sauce or your favorite dipping sauce!
- Recommended cooking times for other types of fries:
Generally follow this guide: shoestring: 13-15 minutes, crinkle: 15-17 minutes, steak: 17-20 minutes.
