    • 🥔 1 pound russet potatoes, peeled

  • Seasoning

    • 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
    • 1 pinch cayenne pepper

Place cooled potatoes in a mixing bowl. Drizzle with vegetable oil and season with cayenne; toss to coat.

4

Preheat an air fryer to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius).

Cook for 15 minutes. Slide basket out and toss fries. Continue frying for about 10 more minutes until golden brown.
