If you want to make good home-made fries in the airfryer, pay attention to the following:
- Choose a variety of potato suitable for making fries.
- It is best to bake the fries in portions of up to 20 oz. for an even result.
- Larger fries will be less crispy than smaller fries.
- Shake the basket halfway through the hot air frying process.

Instructions on how to prepare Home-made fries:

1. Peel the potatoes and cut them into sticks.
2. Soak the potato sticks in a bowl for at least 30 minutes, take them out and dry them with kitchen paper.
3. Pour half a tablespoon of olive oil into a bowl, put the sticks in the bowl and mix until the sticks are coated with oil.
4. Remove the sticks from the bowl with your fingers or a kitchen utensil so that excess oil stays in the bowl. Put the sticks in the basket.
5. Fry the potato sticks at 350°F and shake the basket halfway through the hot air frying process.  
   
   

   Type and Amount (oz.)	Temperature	Time
   Home-made fries 10-30 (oz.)	350°F	18-25 minutes shake basket halfway

Note: Add 3 minutes to the preparation time if you start frying while the airfryer is still cold.
