Air Fryer Shoestring Fries
All the crispy, crunchy goodness of homemade French fries, without the fuss of deep frying.
Ingredients
- 1 pound russet potatoes, unpeeled
- 2 tablespoons canola oil, or other mild vegetable oil
- 1/4 teaspoon table salt, plus more if needed
- 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more if needed
Instructions
- Trim off the ends of the potatoes. Using a spiralizer fitted with a 1/4-inch (6mm) noodle attachment, cut the potatoes into ribbons. As you spiralize, cut the ribbons into 4-inch (10-cm) lengths with kitchen shears.
- Submerge the potatoes in a large bowl of water and rinse to remove excess starch. Drain the potatoes in a colander and repeat the process as needed until the water remains clear. Drain the potatoes one final time, then transfer to a paper towel–lined rimmed baking sheet, and thoroughly pat dry.
- Toss the potatoes with oil, salt, and pepper. Arrange in an even layer in the air fryer basket.
- Place the basket into air fryer and set the temperature to 350°F (175°C). Cook, using tongs to toss gently and separate the potatoes every 5 minutes to prevent sticking, until crispy and golden, 20 to 25 minutes.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve.
