How to Make Home Fries in the Air Fryer
NOTE: I make this recipe in my Cosori 5.8-quart air fryer. Depending on your type of air fryer, size and wattages, cook time may need to be adjusted an additional minute or two. Optional Favorite Dipping Sauces: Because these fries go with almost any sauce, it’s really a taste preference. I love spicy chipotle sauce, ranch dressing, tangy western sauce, blue cheese dressing, creamy cheese sauce or with the original sauce ketchup. Optional Toppings: I love topping these fries with a bit of parmesan cheese, salsa, chili, shredded cheeses, sour cream or hot sauce. Optional Oils: Substitute olive oil for refined coconut oil, avocado oil, vegetable oil, soybean oil or peanut oil. For Air Fryer Truffle Fries, drizzle 1-2 tablespoons of oil infused with truffles. Cooking Tips: This recipe will make a few batches of fries, so let each completed batch rest on a baking sheet to remain crispy. Sweet potato fries can be made with this recipe (cooking time may need to be adjusted 2-3 minutes).
What other dishes can I make with potatoes?
Because potatoes are so versatile, you can make mashed potatoes, homemade tater tots or twice baked potatoes with all the fixings. For unique potato recipes, make spiraled Hasselback potatoes or potato skins.
How can I store leftover fries?
Store leftover fries in an airtight container or storage bag in your refrigerator for 3-4 days. If you are planning to freeze any leftovers place them in an airtight storage container or bag for up to 10 months. Make sure they are completely cooled prior to storing.
What can I serve this dish with?
Enjoy these fries with scrambled eggs, or topped with sunny side up eggs or mixed into a breakfast casserole with bacon or sausage. These fries are delicious with Air Fryer Ribeye, Air Fryer Grilled Cheese, or Air Fryer Chicken Wings. More Air Fryer Recipes:
