Ingredients

How to make Air fryer sour cream fries

  1. Scrub the potatoes and slice them into uniform sticks, approximately 0.5cm thick. In a large bowl, toss the fries with olive oil, salt until every surface is lightly coated. Using a bowl ensures even seasoning without making the fries soggy

  2. Arrange the potatoes in the basket, try not to overcrowd them to ensure maximum airflow. Air fry for 18-24 minutes on 190c, giving the basket a vigorous shake every 5 minutes for an even, golden crunch

  3. While the fries are crisping, whisk together the sour cream, garlic granules, and finely chopped spring onions in a small bowl.

  4. Once the fries are deeply golden and nearly finished (fries should be browned on the outside and soft in the middle), transfer them to a clean bowl. Pour the sour cream mixture over the top and toss gently but quickly to coat

  5. Serve right away while the fries are still hot and the sauce is cool and creamy. Top with an extra sprinkle of spring onions or a dash of black pepper for a professional finish

Why use an air fryer?

Superior Crunch: Rapid air circulation creates a "deep-fried" texture without the grease. Speed: Go from frozen or fresh to loaded in under 30 minutes.
