Ingredients
- 4 large potatoes, preferably Russet or any high-starch variety
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Substitutions: Sweet potatoes for a sweeter variant; Cajun seasoning for a spicy kick.
Instructions
- Preparation: Wash and peel the potatoes. Use a spiralizer to cut the potatoes into curly shapes.
- Seasoning: In a mixing bowl, toss the curly fries with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
- Preheating: Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 3 minutes.
- Cooking: Place the seasoned curly fries in the air fryer basket in a single layer, ensuring they are not overcrowded. Cook for 10-15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking.
- Finishing Touch: Once crispy and golden, remove the fries from the air fryer and sprinkle with a little more salt, if desired.
Notes
For best results, do not overload the air fryer basket; cook in batches if necessary. Adjust cooking time based on your air fryer model and the desired crispiness.
