Batata frita na air fryer

Ingredientes

• 1 pound russet potatoes
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• Salt and pepper (or our Fry Seasoning)

Modo de preparo

1. 1

   Set out a bowl of cold ice water. Slice the potatoes lengthwise into 1/3 - 1/2 inch strips. Place the cut fries in the ice cold water to soak. Allow the fries to soak in the cold water for at least 15 minutes. The longer they soak, the more starches are washed off creating a crispy exterior.

2. 2

   When ready to air fry, preheat the air fryer to 380°F. Pour the fries into a colander to remove the water. Then place a clean dish towel in the bowl and place the fries back in the bowl. Toss and gently rub the fries to dry them thoroughly.

3. 3

   Remove the towel and drizzle olive oil over the fries. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. (Or use our french fries seasoning here.) Then toss the fries to coat well in oil and seasonings.

4. 4

   Depending on the size of your air fryer basket, you may have to work in batches. One pound of potatoes equals one batch in a large standard sized air fryer.

5. 5

   Carefully place the fries in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Try to make sure there's a little bit of space around each fry so they're not touching.

6. 6

   Close the air fryer and cook for 6 minutes. When the timer goes off, shake the basket and then close the air fryer again and cook for another 6-8 minutes until the fries are golden and crispy.

7. 7

   Repeat with the second batch if needed. Serve warm with ketchup or your favorite dipping sauce!
