Air Fryer Tips for Perfect Fries
Want super crispy sweet potato fries? Here’s a simple trick: don’t pile them up! Spread them in a single layer with a bit of space between each fry. The hot air needs room to move around each fry to make them extra crispy. If you’re cooking for a crowd, it’s better to do two batches than to stuff your basket too full.
Dipping Sauce Ideas
Sweet potato fries love a good dip! Try these tasty pairs:
– Honey mustard for a sweet-tangy kick
– Spicy mayo (just mix mayo with hot sauce)
– Ranch dressing for a cool, creamy match
– Chipotle aioli if you like it spicy
– Plain ketchup – sometimes simple is best!
Quick Storage Tips
Just cooked too many fries? While they’re best right out of the air fryer, you can save leftovers in an airtight container in your fridge for 1-2 days. To reheat, pop them back in the air fryer at 350°F for 2-3 minutes. They’ll crisp right up! Skip the microwave – it’ll make them soggy.
Easy Seasonings
Add extra flavor to your fries right when they come out of the air fryer! A sprinkle of garlic powder, paprika, or cinnamon (yes, cinnamon!) can make them even yummier. For a kick of heat, try a dash of cayenne pepper. Don’t forget a pinch of salt – it makes all the flavors pop!
