Description
Crispy and golden air fryer frozen French fries ready in just 20 minutes. This easy recipe uses frozen fries to deliver a quick, delicious side that's perfectly seasoned and cooked to perfection in the air fryer.
Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 lb frozen French fries (we love Checker's frozen fries)
- Salt and pepper, to taste (or use already seasoned fries)
Instructions
- Prepare the basket: Place the frozen French fries evenly in the air fryer basket to ensure they cook uniformly.
- Start air frying: Set the air fryer temperature to 400°F (204°C) and cook the fries for 16 minutes.
- Shake halfway: At the 8-minute mark, carefully remove the basket and shake it to toss the fries, promoting even cooking and crispiness.
- Adjust cooking time if needed: Depending on your preference for crispiness, add or reduce a few minutes at this stage.
- Serve: Once cooked and crispy, remove the fries from the basket, season with salt and pepper if desired, and serve warm.
Notes
- Shaking the basket halfway through cooking is crucial for evenly cooked fries.
- You can customize seasoning by adding different spices before or after cooking.
- Cooking times may vary slightly depending on the air fryer model and fry thickness.
- For extra crispiness, avoid overcrowding the basket to allow air circulation.
