ingredients
- 1 large Russet potato
- Avocado oil (enough to coat)
- 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- Kosher salt, to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
Method
Step 1
Slice the Russet potato into fry shapes. Place the fries in a large bowl of cold water with a few ice cubes and soak for 1 hour. This helps remove excess starch and makes the fries extra crispy.
Step 2
After soaking, drain the water and pat the fries dry with a clean towel. Ensuring they’re completely dry helps them crisp up in the air fryer.
Step 3
In a large bowl, toss the fries with a light coat of avocado oil. Add the parmesan, cornstarch, garlic powder, paprika, salt, pepper, and oregano. Mix until all fries are evenly coated.
Step 4
Preheat an air fryer to 400°F. Place the fries in the air fryer basket in a single layer (you may need to cook in batches). Air fry for 15 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.
Step 5
Serve the crispy garlic parmesan fries with your favorite dipping sauce—ranch is a perfect choice! Enjoy immediately.
