Ingredients
Scale
2 large russet potatoes
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon dried parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Start by washing and peeling your russet potatoes. You want them nice and clean—after all, no one wants dirt with their fries!
Cut the potatoes into thin, even strips. Think classic fry shape here—if they’re irregular, they’ll cook unevenly. Trust me; you want that perfect crunch!
Soak those potato strips in cold water for at least 30 minutes (or longer if you have time). This little soaking business helps draw out the starch and results in crispier fries.
After soaking, drain and pat them dry with a clean towel. We want to remove as much moisture as possible to guarantee that fabulous crunch!
In a large bowl, toss the dried fries with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Make sure every fry is coated—no one likes a bland potato.
Now, preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes. Once it’s heated, it’s fry time! Place the fries in a single layer in the fryer basket (you might need to do this in batches).
Cook for about 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through for that even browning. Feel free to sneak a taste around the 15-minute mark; you can never be too cautious when managing your fry destiny!
Once they’re crispy and golden, take them out and immediately sprinkle the grated parmesan on top while they’re still hot—this way, the cheese melts into the fries just right!
Serve them hot and garnish with a sprinkle of dried parsley if you’re feeling fancy. Grab your favorite dip (ketchup, anyone?), and enjoy!
