Equipment

  • Air Fryer

Ingredients

  • 1 lb french fries frozen
  • 1/2 tsp olive oil
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions

  • Preheat the air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for 2 minutes.
  • Place the frozen French fries in a bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Toss lightly to coat.
  • Add the fries to the air fryer basket in a single layer. Do not overcrowd. Cook in batches if needed.
  • Air fry at 400°F (200°C) for 12 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through.
  • Check for doneness. For extra crispiness, continue cooking for an additional 3–5 minutes.
  • Remove and serve immediately while hot and crispy.

Notes

  • Do not thaw the fries cook them straight from frozen for best results.
  • Shake the basket well halfway through to avoid uneven cooking.
  • For extra crispiness, cook in smaller batches rather than overcrowding.
