Step-by-Step Instructions for Crispy Air Fryer French Fries
  1. Clean and scrub the russet potatoes under cold running water, then slice them into even ¼-inch thick strips.
  2. Rinse the cut fries in a bowl of cold water to remove excess starch, then thoroughly pat them dry.
  3. In a mixing bowl, toss the dried fries with olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
  4. Preheat the air fryer to 380°F (190°C) and cook the fries in a single layer for about 10 minutes.
  5. Toss the fries after 10 minutes, then continue cooking for an additional 6-10 minutes until golden brown.
  6. Remove the fries from the air fryer and let them cool slightly. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauces.
