First thing I made in air fryer when we just bought it was Air Fryer French Fries! Since then we have been often making fresh French Fries in air fryer. The results are so good.

Cooking Fries in Air Fryer
When cooking fresh cut home fries in the air fryer, make sure to note a few important things. These are essential to make the best homemade French fries.
- Preheat Air Fryer to ensure even cooking from the start.
- Soak Potatoes To Get Rid of starch - For best results, rinse and prep the potatoes. (detailed ahead)
- Cut even Thickness Fries - russet potatoes into French fries of even thickness don't. Don't cut too thin or two thick pieces as these will cook unevenly. The thin fries will get crisp quickly. The thick pieces become mushy instead of crisping up.
- Do not overcrowd the air fryer. It is best to make fries in two batches, about two pound potatoes fries at a time.
- Use air fryer rack when making fries in the air fryer. This helps with better circulation of hot air. No soggy fries please!
- Toss potatoes while cooking a couple of times for even air frying. It is important to toss potatoes by shaking the air fryer basket. Don't use tongs as tongs break the fries.
To cook the French fries, I start by slicing the russet potatoes lengthwise to even long pieces. (see in the video coming soon) You can choose to peel the potatoes but I use potatoes with the skin (thoroughly washed).
Secret to Cooking Best Homemade French Fries in Air Fryer
Soak Potatoes To Remove Starch
Once the potatoes are sliced, I rinse potatoes in cold water and then soak in water and set aside for at least 30 minutes. This is a very important step to get rid of most of the starch from the potatoes. Fries made with low-starch potatoes will be crispier, not at all mushy and will not stick to each other while cooking.
Soak sliced potatoes in water for at least 30 minutes up to overnight. If soaking overnight, cover the container and refrigerate.
Completely Dry the Potatoes Before Air Fry
When ready to cook, drain the water and let fries completely dry out. Any moisture hanging around the potatoes will make potatoes steam in the air fryer instead of getting crispier.
So to completely dry the potatoes, place the drain potatoes in few layers of clean paper towels. Leave aside for 10 minutes to 20 minutes. Or refrigerate for 10 minutes. These two are the best ways to get rid of moisture on the cut potatoes.
Note: Above 2 steps that is; 1) soak potatoes and 2) then completely dry, are quintessential for cooking air fryer home fries. These two steps are also essential to make deep fried fries.
Coat in Oil Before Cooking
Once potato slices are dry, I coat these in 1-2 tablespoons of oil. Add to pre heated air fryer and cook for 25-30 minutes. For best results, I like to massage potatoes in oil. This ensures that potatoes cook crispy from all sides.
As mentioned earlier, only toss potatoes by shaking the air fryer a couple of times. Don't use tongs as these break the fries.
I immediately coat just out of the fryer hot fries with garlic and parmesan seasoning. Hot French Fries with flavor of fresh garlic. Yum!
Timings for Cooking French Fries in Air Fryer
In my experience, well prepped fresh cut potatoes, massaged in the oil and then Air Fried at 360 degrees Fahrenheit for 25 (up-to 30 minutes) is the best way to cook French fries in air fryer. I used Ninja Foodi Max XL Air Fryer.
What are Perfectly Cooked French Fries?
