Equipment

  • Air Fryer
  • Chopping Board
  • Knife
  • Measuring Spoons
  • Mixing Bowl

Ingredients

Metric - US Customary
  • 2 Sweet Potatoes roughly the same size and length
  • 1 tablespoon Olive Oil or use sunflower or vegetable oil
  • ½ teaspoon Sea Salt
  • ½ teaspoon Smoked Paprika
  • ¼ teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • ¼ teaspoon Oregano
  • ⅛ teaspoon Black Pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat the air fryer to 200°C (400F).
  • Peel and cut the potatoes in half lengthways (which will make it easier to lay them flat on a chopping board and start cutting into long slices). The thinner you cut them, the more crispy they will be. I recommend that you cut them to about 1 cm thickness
  • Place the sweet potato fries into a bowl and pour in the olive oil and sprinkle over the seasonings. Use your hands to make sure each sweet potato is coated.
  • Put the fries into the air fryer basket and air fry for 20 minutes, shaking the basket after 10 minutes to make sure they cook evenly.

Notes

Top Tips:
  • Use two sweet potatoes that are roughly the same size and aren't too long so you can cut fries from the full length of the sweet potato.
  • Preheat your air fryer so the air fryer basket is nice and hot when you place the fries in it. It helps to keep them crispy.
  • Shake after 10 minutes to make sure the fries cook evenly.
 
Variations:
  • Try with regular white potatoes instead. Don't forget you will need to soak white potatoes before using them in the air fryer.
  • Try different seasonings.
  • Make them cheesy fries by serving them in a bowl with grated mozzarella cheese sprinkled on top.
