Equipment

  • air fryer
  • mixing bowl (optional)
  • tongs or spatula

Ingredients

  • 400 g frozen french fries
  • 1 tsp oil (optional)
  • salt to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat your air fryer to 400°F for 3–5 minutes.
  • Add frozen fries directly into the air fryer basket without thawing.
  • Spread the fries evenly in a single layer to ensure proper airflow.
  • Lightly spray with oil if desired for extra crispiness.
  • Cook for 6–8 minutes, then shake the basket well.
  • Continue cooking for another 6–10 minutes until fries are golden and crispy.
  • Season with salt and serve immediately.

Notes

For best results, cook fries in a single layer and avoid overcrowding. Shake the basket halfway through cooking for even crispiness. You can lightly spray with oil for extra crunch. Adjust cooking time based on thickness, and add 1–2 extra minutes for a crispier texture.
