Equipment
- 1 Ninja DZ201 Foodi 8 Quart 6-in-1 DualZone 2-Basket Air Fryer with 2 Independent Frying Baskets, Match Cook & Smart Finish to Roast, Broil, Dehydrate & More for Quick, Easy Meals, Grey
Ingredients
- 2 lbs potatoes russets or Yukon golds are great options!
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Italian Herb Seasoning
- 1 teaspoon lemon pepper
- ½ teaspoon Himalayan Sea Salt
- 1 lemon zest and juice
Instructions
- Wash potatoes under cold water and scrub with a bristled brush to remove any dirt.
- Rinse under cold water.
- Slice potatoes into 1/4 inch strips.
- Dunk fries in large bowl with cold water and let sit 20 minutes.
- Drain water and refill with new cold water, let sit additional 40 minutes.
- In a small bowl combine the dry seasonings and whisk.
- Drain the potatoes and dry thoroughly between paper towels.
- In a large bowl, combine potatoes, oil, and seasonings.
- Mix well with your hands to ensure an even coating.
- Pre-heat the Air Fryer to 400F.
- When ready, dump the fries into an even layer.
- Close and set the time for 20 minutes. I personally like more crunch, and set mine at 25 minutes.
- Shake halfway through.
- The entire batch can be cooked at once.
- To do more than one batch, doubling is fine.
- Simply keep the cooked fries on a baking sheet in the oven at 225F to remain warm until you're ready to serve.
- Serve with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, parsley, and of course ketchup!
