AIR FRYER HOME FRIES

But lately, I’ve been expenditure more time at family, and I’m starting to miss breakfast at restaurants. These are just like my cherished restaurant orders – very crispy and golden brown on the outside and comfy and creamy on inner side. Also, because there is little oil used, the home fries are not at all greasy.

Start by prepping the potatoes and cooking them at 200°F for 15-20 minutes. You should move the fry basket about every 5 minutes to cook evenly. At first, the color does not develop easily, but when it is completed, it becomes a beautiful golden color.
