RECIPE FOR CRISPY SWEET POTATO FRIES IN AIR FRYER
Here’s a simple and delicious Crispy Sweet Potato Fries recipe for your air fryer!
Ingredients:
- 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into ¼-inch fries
- 1 tbsp corn-starch (for extra crispiness)
- 1 tbsp olive oil (or avocado oil)
- ½ tsp salt (adjust to taste)
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp smoked paprika (optional, for a smoky flavour)
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- ¼ tsp cayenne pepper (optional, for a little heat)
Instructions:
- Preheat the air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for 3-5 minutes.
- Soak the sweet potato fries in cold water for 30 minutes (optional but helps remove excess starch for crispier fries). Pat dry thoroughly.
- Coat the fries in corn-starch first, then toss with oil and seasonings.
- Arrange in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Avoid overcrowding to ensure even cooking.
- Cook for 12-15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through. Increase temperature to 400°F (200°C) for the last 2-3 minutes for extra crispiness.
- Serve immediately with your favourite dipping sauce!
Tips for Extra Crispiness:
✅ Soak in water to remove starch.
✅ Don’t skip the corn-starch—it helps create a crunchy coating.
✅ Cook in batches if needed to avoid overcrowding.
