  • Avoid Overcrowding: Avoid filling the air fryer basket more than halfway. You will not be able to cook the full bag in the air fryer; you will need to cook it in batches. 
  • Shake Regularly: Halfway through the cooking process, give the basket a good shake.
  • Don’t Forget Preheating: Preheating your air fryer before adding the fries can lead to better results.
  • Watch the Time: Cooking times can vary based on different air fryer models and the number of fries you cook.
  • Season After Cooking: If you want to add some extra seasoning, do it right after you take the fries out of the air fryer.
  • Stay Safe: Always use oven mitts or tongs to remove the basket from the air fryer. It can get very hot!

Do I need to thaw the fries before cooking them in the air fryer? You can cook Arby’s Frozen Curly Fries straight from the freezer. Thawing them first could actually make them soggy.

Do I need to add oil to the fries before air frying them? No, Arby’s Frozen Curly Fries already contain seasoned oil, so you don’t need to add any extra oil before air frying them.

Can I cook other foods simultaneously as the fries in the air fryer? It’s generally best to cook one type of food at a time in an air fryer for the best results. Different foods can require different cooking times and temperatures.

What if my fries aren’t crispy after the suggested cooking time? Air fryers can vary in terms of power and how quickly they cook. If your fries aren’t as crispy as you’d like, you can continue to cook them for a few more minutes. Just make sure to check them frequently to prevent overcooking.

How many fries can I cook at once in the air fryer? The amount of fries you can cook at once depends on the size of your air fryer. However, you should only fill the air fryer basket halfway or less for best results. Overcrowding can prevent the fries from cooking evenly. You generally can not cook the entire bag of frozen Curly Fries in the air fryer. 

How do I clean my air fryer after cooking fries in it? After the air fryer has cooled, remove the basket and pan. Most air fryer parts are dishwasher safe, but you can also clean them by hand using warm water and mild dish soap. Be sure to dry all parts thoroughly before reassembling the air fryer.

​Storing Leftover Arby’s Curly Fries If you have any leftover curly fries, let them cool to room temperature before placing them in an airtight container. They will last for 2-3 days. To avoid soggy fries, you can line the air-tight container with a paper towel to absorb excess moisture. 

How To Reheat Arby’s Fries In Air Fryer

Reheating Arby’s Curly Fries in an air fryer can revive their original crunch and flavor. Here’s how you can do it:

  • Preheat the Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C). Preheating ensures the fries reheat evenly.
  • Spread Out the Fries: Spread your leftover Arby’s Curly Fries in the air fryer basket. Make sure not to overcrowd the basket; the fries should be in a single layer for the best results. If you have a lot of fries, you may need to reheat them in batches.
  • Reheat the Fries: Cook the fries for 3-4 minutes or until they’re heated through and crispy. You might want to shake the basket halfway through the cooking time to make sure all the fries heat evenly.
  • Serve Immediately: Once the fries are crispy and hot, remove them from the air fryer and serve immediately.
