Ingredients
- 2 Sweet potato
- 2 tsp Oil
- 1 tsp Paprika - optional
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- ¼ tsp Garlic powder - optional
- 1/2 tsp Black pepper - fresh ground optional
Instructions
- Peel and slice each potato into even 1/4 inch (0.5 cm) thick fries.
- In a large bowl with boiling water, soak sweet potato slices. Drain sweet potatoes; pat dry with paper towels.
- In a large bowl toss sweet potato, oil, paprika, salt, garlic powder and pepper (and/or any spices you may like*). Mix until all fries are evenly coated.
- Place mixture into the air fryer.
- Don’t overcrowd the basket. 1-2 sweet potatoes may fit perfect (mine is good for up to 1 kg (2 Lb) but if yours is smaller, do them in batches. To make sure they are all hot at the same time, you can add the batches that are cooked back in the air fryer and heat them up 1 minute so everything is hot.
- If yours have a temperature setting (mine doesn’t), set your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
- Cook for 15 to 30 minutes.
- Check and stir (this is a must if yours doesn’t have this function, the heat on the bottom is stronger than the top so turning is a must) after 10 minutes and then every 5 minutes until cooked through and golden brown. Don’t be afraid to open the air fryer to check to see if they are done. **
- Using a pair of tongs, carefully remove sweet potatoes from air fryer to plate. Serve immediately or let cool and store in an airtight plastic container.
- It's delicious with this <a href="http://fast2eat.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=15494&action=edit" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Perfect Air Fryer Juicy Steak Fast2eat</a>
