Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 6 medium potatoes scrubbed and cut into ¼-inch fries

  • Preheat the air fryer to 380°F.

  • Carefully arrange half of the fries in a single layer at the base of the air fryer basket, making sure that they are spaced apart and have room to cook on all sides. Pop the basket back into the air fryer and set the timer for 15 minutes, allowing the fries to cook to golden perfection.
