Big fries, skinny fries, I like ALL fries! While these skinny fries won't make you skinny, they do a better job of keeping you that way than their deep-fried version.

Ingredients
- 3 russet potatoes peeled and cut into 1/4-inch sticks
- 2 teaspoons olive or vegetable oil
- salt
Instructions
-
Cut the potatoes into ¼-inch strips. A mandolin with a julienne blade is really helpful here.
-
Rinse the potatoes with cold water several times an let them soak in cold water for at least 10 minutes or as long as overnight.
-
Pre-heat the air fryer to 380ºF.
-
Drain and dry the potato sticks really well, using a clean kitchen towel. Toss the fries with the oil in a bowl and then air fry in two batches at 380ºF for 15 minutes, shaking the basket a couple of times during the cooking time.
-
Add the first batch of French fries back into the air fryer basket with the finishing batch and let everything warm through for a few minutes. As soon as the fries are done, season them with salt and transfer them to a plate. Serve with ketchup or your favorite dip.
