Air Fryer French fries

 This is what worked the first try, but next time I may increase temp to 400 and hope for less cooking time. 

  • Cut potatoes into ¼ inch sticks. 
  • Place them in a large bowl and cover with very hot tap water; leave for about ten minutes (this step makes fries crispier). 
  • Preheat air fryer to 375 for about three minutes
  • Drain potatoes, transfer to clean towel and pat as dry as you can. 
  • Rinse and dry out bowl and return potatoes to the bowl.
  • Drizzle with olive oil, salt, and other seasoning as desired. 
  • Toss to coat. 
  • Put first batch of potatoes into air fryer, no more than two layers (one layer is best for crispiness).
  • Check on fries every five minutes and add time as needed. The recipe I used said ten minutes total; it took mine about 20 (but we like super crispy fries). 
  • Keep batches warm in a preheated 200 oven.
