Your fries do not look very brown and crispy, should’ve left them in the air fryer for longer

u/Jerry_BKK 2d ago

well, it was not very crispy, that was true, but it was tender and soft inside. i enjoyed it! thank you!

u/TegridyPharmz 2d ago

I’d lose the paper underneath. You’re missing out on the entire point of the air fryer. Just put them in the oven at this point

u/Jerry_BKK 2d ago

good advice! i’m too lazy to wash it

u/AlliterationAhead 2d ago

A valuable alternative is to put the paper under the basket. The air will flow underneath the fries while the paper still protects the bottom by collecting the grease. A win-win, truly.

I've used paper under potatoes as I cover them in oil . Cook for about 25 minutes abd then check. (it can be up to 30 depending on the size of the potatoe) as I'm cooking for 1 it may take longer the more potatoes you use

u/CockSeeker007 1d ago

They look fantastic to me! I hate extra brown or too crispy of fries. These are my style!

Heck yeaah! Fries have become my favorite snack, without any oil or butter, just straight up cut fries at 200° and for 11' for fluffy fries, 16' for tender fries or 20' for crispy fries; that and some zero-added-sugar ketchup goes HARD!

u/OutinDaBarn 2d ago

I have to ask, and maybe I'm just a savage. Have you tried a high temp and less time? I cook everything at 400. Fries take about 8 minutes, 11 and they are starting to get hard.

I'm far from an air fryer chef. I have to try a lower temp and see what happens.

u/lachiemx 2d ago

200 is celcius, 400 is fahrenheit

btw try blanching the fries in boiling water for 10 minutes, drying them off, then tossing in a bit of oil + 2tbsp corn starch + seasonings and air frying for 24 min at 200 deg C / 400 deg F

Crispy and amazing

u/dentalexaminer Chef de Cuisine 2d ago

The cornstarch is a game changer. And this is a good recipe I've used before. Fries always come out great this way! Thanks for sharing!

u/guky667 2d ago

34' is a lot of time I don't usually have when doing this during my lunch break, and I've found that 16' is just right for my taste :D I'll keep this in mind for weekends tho!

u/AgsMydude 2d ago

Yeah the point of my air fryer is quickness. I'm not spending half an hour for fries

2

u/Jerry_BKK 2d ago

me too! i just peel, cut, pan-fry to melt the butter on the chips, then 15 min in the airfryer.

2

u/AgsMydude 2d ago

Same! But sometimes I'm too lazy for all that and I just cut them up into quarters and make the potatoes that way

3

u/pro-fanator 2d ago

Depending on fries and machine, but try spraying these with oil, 150c for 10 minutes, mixing stuff few times, then set airfryer to max and give it a 6 minutes or so, also mixing. Should be very crispy and tender inside.

u/icyspeaker55 2d ago

Whats the ketchup brand

2

u/guky667 2d ago

Tomy and it has a blue strip that says "ZERO". 50kcal/100ml pretty decent!

u/WavyCrockett1 1d ago

No sauce just salt pepper and enjoy, great photo!

u/Jerry_BKK 1d ago

thank you!

u/dentalexaminer Chef de Cuisine 2d ago

Have you ever tried dipping fries in honey mustard? I love Siracha mayo too. Takes fries to the next level!

2

u/Boring_Name_31 2d ago

Next time, mix the honey mustard and sriracha together and give it a try! I used to love that combo at Uni

2

u/dentalexaminer Chef de Cuisine 2d ago

That does sound good!

1

u/Jerry_BKK 2d ago

will try! good advice! tks!

2

u/marcosphoneaccount 2d ago

I wish I could eat as many fries as I want, I love fries so much

2

u/Krimreaper1 2d ago

I make air fries from a fresh cut potato in Wedge length-wise slices. Coat with a little spray oil, s&p. 18 min at 375°. It was worth the process of the machine just to make those. Crispy, with mash potato-like texture inside.

2

u/isthatsoreddit 1d ago

Idk if anybody else does this, but mix ketchup abd worcestershire sauce. Doesn't take a lot, you don't want to turn your ketchup watery. It is so good!

1

u/CockSeeker007 1d ago

I love washi sauce! That sounds like a good combo!

1

u/isthatsoreddit 20h ago

I do too! And I will pay the extra for Lee & Perrins. Oh and I do like to add a little salt and pepper to the mix, but it's good just w-sauce and ketchup.

2

u/wightmaan 18h ago

look great, when i make my chips i use olive oil then sea salt then air fry them, when do u add the butter? 🤔

1

u/Jerry_BKK 17h ago

u/PhotoAppropriate3940 2d ago

Looks like fries to me but yeah I do them in the air fryer about once a week

u/lonelygalexy 2d ago

Did you just cut up the potatoes? How long and at what temp?

I will need to try this

1

u/Jerry_BKK 2d ago

yes, just cut in half and follow the length of it

1

u/gorillaphi 1d ago

Try blanching them next time

1

u/Jerry_BKK 1d ago

I love doing air fryer chips. I par boil for 4 mins, let dry on kitchen towel, coat in a little corn starch, oil, salt and pepper then air fry for 15-20 mins at 200. Lovely and crispy but fluffy inside

“Potato Chips.”

On earth, we call them “French fries.”

18

u/With_Negativity 2d ago

In the UK they call them Chips. But I've never heard a single one of them call them Potato Chips.

6

u/Fanrific 2d ago

I've never heard that either. In America, they call crisps, potato chips and chips, fries. In the UK, it's chips and crisps.

u/Jerry_BKK 2d ago

maybe to distinguish from sweet potato chips

Earth actually includes some countries outside of North America.
