Ore Ida Zesty Curly Fries Air Fryer

Preheat your air fryer to 400 degrees F (200°C), for 3-5 minutes. While your air fryer is preheating, open the bag of Ore-Ida Zesty Curly Fries and pour them into a bowl. Give the fries a quick toss to evenly distribute the seasonings.

If desired, you can lightly spray the fries with cooking spray. This will help enhance the crispiness of the fries. Once your air fryer is preheated, carefully transfer the seasoned fries into the air fryer basket. It’s important not to overcrowd the basket, as this can prevent the fries from cooking evenly.

Set the cook time for 15-20 minutes, depending on your desired level of crispiness. Remember to shake the basket halfway through the cooking time to ensure that the fries cook evenly.

Ore Ida Zesty Curly Fries Air Fryer Recipe Tips

  • Preheating your air fryer is essential. This step helps ensure that the fries cook evenly and achieve that desirable crispy texture.
  • Avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket. Leaving enough space between the fries allows for proper air circulation, resulting in a crispier end product.
  • Shake the basket halfway through the cooking time. This helps prevent the fries from sticking together and ensures that they cook evenly on all sides.
  • If you prefer an extra crispy exterior, lightly spray the fries with cooking spray before air frying. This will help enhance the crispiness and add an extra layer of flavor.
