Notes

  • For even cooking, cut the potatoes as uniform as possible.
  • Soaking in ice water for 10 minutes can increase the crispiness of the fries.
  • Be sure to drain the potatoes well and pat them dry with a paper towel.
  • Preheat the oven or air fryer before making this recipe.
  • Air fryers can vary, so it’s best to use the cooking times as a guide and check your fries until you learn the quirks of your fryer.
  • Loaded fries can get soggy quickly. For the best flavor and texture, serve these immediately after cooking.
