  • Total Time: 1 hour
  • Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients

Potatoes

  • 4 large Yukon Gold potatoes

Seasonings and Oil

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ cup finely grated parmesan cheese
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Rinse and scrub potatoes: Thoroughly rinse the potatoes under cold water and scrub to remove any dirt from the skin.
  2. Cut potatoes into thin strips: Using a sharp knife, cut the potatoes into thin 1/4 inch strips to create uniform fries.
  3. Soak potatoes in ice water: Place the sliced potatoes into a large bowl filled with ice water and let them soak for 30 minutes. This step removes excess starch and helps achieve crispiness.
  4. Drain and dry potatoes: After soaking, drain the water and pat the potato strips completely dry with a clean towel to prevent sogginess.
  5. Coat potatoes with oil and salt: Add olive oil and kosher salt to the dried potato strips, then toss well to ensure they are evenly coated.
  6. Arrange potatoes in air fryer basket: Place the potato strips in a single layer in the greased air fryer basket. Avoid overlapping to allow even cooking. You may need to cook in batches depending on your air fryer size.
  7. Air fry potatoes: Set the air fryer to 380°F (193°C) and cook the fries for 18-20 minutes, flipping or shaking the basket halfway through for even browning.
  8. Prepare garlic parmesan seasoning: While the fries cook, mix together the finely grated parmesan cheese, garlic powder, and chopped parsley in a small bowl.
  9. Toss fries with seasoning and serve: Once fries are crispy and golden, remove them from the air fryer and immediately toss with the garlic parmesan mixture. Serve hot.

Notes

  • Soaking the potatoes in ice water is essential for crispiness as it removes excess starch.
  • Make sure to dry the potatoes thoroughly before air frying to avoid soggy fries.
  • Cook fries in batches if necessary to ensure they cook evenly and get crispy.
  • You can substitute parsley with fresh basil or oregano for a different herb flavor.
  • Serve these fries immediately for the best texture and taste.
