Instructions

  • Chop 500 g Potato into thin fries, leaving the skin on.
  • Put the chips into a large bowl and cover with cold water. Mix around and leave to stand for a few minutes.
  • Drain and put the chips onto a clean towel or paper towels and pat dry.
  • Transfer the chips to a large bowl. Add 1 tablespoon Olive oil, 1 pinch Sea salt1 pinch Ground black pepper and 0.5 tablespoon Garlic granules and mix well. Put the coated chips into your air fryer basket.
  • Cook the chips for 20 minutes on the Air Fry setting at 200°C. Shake the chips after 5 minutes and then regularly before the time is up.

Notes

  • If you want to change the amount this makes, we recommend a ratio of 1 tablespoon of oil to every medium sized potato.
  • Make sure that the chips are all cut to the same size so you get evenly cooked air fryer chips.
  • Always rinse/soak them before cooking them (making sure you pat them dry), as this removes the excess starch and makes for fluffier insides.
  • For some extra indulgent chips, sprinkle some Parmesan on top a few minutes before they are fully cooked.
  • Make sure to check your chips regularly during cooking and shake them to ensure they are cooking evenly.
  • Make sure your air fryer is preheated before the chips go in for best results.
  • If you are making air fryer chunky chips, then add on about 4 minutes to the cooking time.
