Subj : 7/13 Nat French Fry Day 2 To : All From : Dave Drum Date : Sat Jul 12 2025 14:47:00 MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Air-Fryer French Fries Categories: Potatoes, Dairy Yield: 2 servings 1 lg (8 oz) russet potato; in - 1/4" sticks 1 1/2 tb Extra-virgin olive oil 1 ts Salt; more as needed 1/4 c Mayonnaise 2 tb Sour cream 1 tb Dijon mustard 1/4 ts Smoked paprika Put potatoes in a large bowl and cover with cold water. Soak for at least 30 minutes (up to overnight, stored in the refrigerator), then drain and pat very dry. Set the air fryer @ 350oF/175oC. Line a rimmed baking sheet with paper towels. In a dry bowl, toss potatoes with 1 tablespoon oil and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. Transfer to air fryer and fry for 10 minutes, tossing halfway. Transfer the potatoes to the baking sheet, spreading them in an even layer, and let cool to room temperature, at least 30 minutes and up to 4 hours. (This step is optional; it gives the fries a slightly crispier exterior. If you want to skip it, keep the potatoes in the fryer and proceed to the next step.) Turn the air fryer heat up to 400oF/205oC. Arrange potatoes in the fryer if you've taken them out, and drizzle with 1/2 tablespoon oil. Cook for until golden and crisp, about 8 to 10 minutes, tossing or stirring halfway through. Transfer immediately to a serving platter and sprinkle with more salt. While the fries are cooking, make the sauce: In a small bowl, stir together mayonnaise, sour cream, mustard and paprika. Serve alongside the fries for dipping.
