Making home-made fries
To make great home-made fries in the Airfryer:

(slightly) oury potatoes.
-It is best to air fry the fries in portions of up to 500g/18oz for
an even result. Larger fries tend to be less crispy than smaller
fries.
1 Peel the potatoes and cut into sticks
(10x10mm/0.4x0.4inthick).
2 Soak the potato sticks in a bowl of water for at least
30minutes.
3 Empty the bowl and dry the potato sticks with a dish towel
orpapertowel.
