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 1000 grams for
an even result. Larger fries tend to be less crispy than smaller
fries.
- Shake the basket 2-3 times during the airfrying process.
1 Peel the potatoes and cut into sticks (8x8mm / 0.3 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 a half tablespoon of cooking oil in 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 in the basket.
7 Fry the potato sticks and shake the basket halfway through
the airfrying process. Shake 2-3 times if you prepare more
than 500g of fries.
Note
Consult the chapter "Food table" for the right quantities and cooking
•
times.
