Notes
For the best result, air fry them in batches, so they get cooked evenly and come out nice and crispy. You can stir them midway for even cooking.
Toaster oven-style air fryers usually take longer to cook. Increase the time by 4-5 minutes if you use one.
Spray a little oil on the french fries to make them extra crispy. If you don’t have a spray, apply a little oil on the fries with a brush.
If you are using a larger air fryer, you can fry a bigger batch simultaneously.
Do not overcook the fries; otherwise, they will turn hard.
Seasoning Options
Taco Seasoning – I used my homemade taco seasoning to season the fries.
Black Pepper – Season the fries with a little salt and black pepper to keep it simple.
Indian Masala – Spice them with basic Indian spice powders such as turmeric powder, red chili powder, chaat masala, and salt. Want more tanginess? Squeeze a little lemon juice on top.
Peri Peri – This is a famous seasoning used by many fast-food restaurants. You can buy a peri peri seasoning from stores or make one at home.
Homemade Peri Peri mix is a mixture of oregano, red chili flakes, red chili powder, garlic powder, cinnamon powder, cardamom powder, ginger powder, sugar, and salt.
Garlic and Herbs – Season the fries with garlic powder and other seasonings such as red chili flakes, oregano, dried thyme, etc.
