Making home-made fries
To make great home-made fries in the Airfryer:
-
Choose a potato variety suitable for making fries, e.g. fresh, (slightly)
floury potatoes.
-
It is best to air fry the fries in portions of up to 800 g/28 oz for an even
result. Larger fries tend to be less crispy than smaller fries.
1
Peel the potatoes and cut into sticks (10 x 10 mm/0.4 x 0.4 in thick).
2
Soak the potato sticks in a bowl of water for at least 30 minutes.
3
Empty the bowl and dry the potato sticks with a dish towel or paper
towel.
4 Pour one tablespoon of cooking oil into the bowl, put the sticks in the
bowl and mix until the sticks are coated with oil.
5
Remove the sticks from the bowl with your fingers or a slotted kitchen
utensil so excess oil remains in the bowl.
Note
Do not tilt the bowl to pour all the sticks in the basket at once to prevent
•
excess oil from going into the pan.
6 Put the sticks into the basket.
7
Fry the potato sticks and shake the basket 2-3 times during cooking.
