Equipment

Ingredients

  • 16 oz. Frozen crinkle cut fries or 450 gm.

Instructions

  • Cut open a packet of frozen crinkle cut fries. You do not need to thaw these at all.
  • Preheat air fryer at 180C or 360F for 5 minutes.
  • You can lightly grease your air fryer basket. Mine does not require it since these frozen fries already have enough oil in them.
  • The same reason why I don’t spray any oil on them.
  • Air fry at 360F or 180C for about 10-12 minutes till they are nice and browned.
  • For added browning, air fry for a couple of minutes at 390F or 200C. This makes them browner in appearance.
  • You will need to shake the basket every 4 minutes so that all the fries cook evenly.
  • Once, they are crispy on the outside and cooked inside, take them out and serve hot after tossing in the seasoning of your choice.
  • Just salt, pepper, chilli flakes and garlic powder taste great.
  • Or you can try any of the seasoning mix suggestions given in the post.
  • Serve them hot.

Notes

1. Do not thaw the fries. They turn out much crisper when air fried from frozen.
2. Your air frying time will be the same unless you use very thick cut fries. If you are cooking a larger batch, do it in two batches.
3. Avoid much overlapping of the fries in the air fryer basket, or they will cook unevenly.
4. There is no need to brush or spray them with oil as they already have a lot of oil in them.
5. Do not let the fries overlap in the air fryer basket or they will not cook evenly.
