Crispy French Fries (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

01 - 1 1/2 pounds of russet potatoes, peeled or unpeeled if you prefer.

02 - 1 tablespoon of freshly chopped rosemary or 1 teaspoon dried.

03 - 2 teaspoons of vegetable oil or canola works too.

04 - 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper, freshly cracked for best flavor.

05 - 1/2 teaspoon of fine sea salt or more to taste.

01 - Slice potatoes into strips 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick, then drop them in icy water for at least 1 hour or up to a full day.

02 - Warm up the air fryer to 390°F. Give it about 15 minutes to heat up properly.

03 - Pat the potato sticks dry, then mix them in a bowl with oil, rosemary, salt, and pepper until fully coated.

04 - Lay the potatoes in the fryer basket, cook for 10 minutes, and give them a toss halfway through for even cooking.

05 - Keep frying for another 10-12 minutes until they’re golden and crunchy. Check and remove any pieces that look overly dark as you go.

06 - Let them sit for a few minutes to crisp up a little more. Add extra salt to your liking before serving.

01 - You can leave your potatoes soaking for a maximum of 24 hours in the fridge.

02 - Reheat any extras by tossing them in a hot pan instead of the microwave.

03 - Fries tend to firm up a bit more as they cool off.
