Ingredients
- 2 large Russet potatoes
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your air fryer to 380°F (193°C).
Step 2
Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Cut them into thin strips, about 1/4-inch thick, to create classic French fry shapes.
Step 3
Place the cut potatoes in a bowl of cold water and let them soak for about 10 minutes. This helps remove excess starch and makes the fries crispier.
Step 4
After soaking, drain the potatoes and pat them dry thoroughly with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
Step 5
In a large bowl, toss the dried potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, and black pepper until they are evenly coated.
Step 6
Arrange the seasoned potato strips in the air fryer basket in a single layer. If necessary, cook in batches to avoid overcrowding, which helps them cook evenly and become crispy.
Step 7
Air fry the potatoes for 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket or tossing the fries halfway through for even cooking. Cook until they are golden brown and crispy to your liking.
Step 8
Transfer the fries to a serving platter and serve hot. Enjoy them with your favorite low sodium condiments or dipping sauces.
