Notes
- Cut - The thicker the cut of potato the longer they will require to cook and vice versa. Also, try and cut potatoes uniformly to help cook evenly. Note: smaller pieces will brown quicker and be crispier.
- Soaking potatoes in water whilst you are cutting them up helps to release starch which makes them crispier on the outside. The longer the soaking the better, try and leave them for at least 30 minutes. When I am in a rush, I have soaked them for around 15 minutes and they still turned out good.
- To reheat these fries, simply place them back into the air fryer and cook for 5 minutes on medium.
