Notes
These fries pair well with ketchup, ranch dressing, or any dip of your choice. For a complete meal, serve alongside grilled chicken or a fresh salad. Soaking the potatoes in ice water removes excess starch, making the fries crispier. Drying the potatoes well helps the Parmesan mixture stick, and avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket for the best results. You can customize this recipe with your favorite spices or different types of cheese.
