Air Fryer Method:
Skip deep frying and use an air fryer. After soaking and drying the potatoes, toss them in a little oil and air fry at 375°F (190°C) for 15–20 minutes, shaking halfway through.
FAQ:
Q: Why soak the fries?
A: Soaking removes excess starch, which prevents fries from sticking and helps achieve a crisper texture.
Q: Why fry twice?
A: The first fry cooks the potato through; the second fry creates the golden, crispy exterior.
Q: Can I use other types of potatoes?
A: Russets are best due to their high starch content. Waxy potatoes like Yukon Golds will yield softer fries.
