Instructions

1
Insert the air fry basket into position 5. Select Phase Cook for P1 and set the oven to Bake, Super Convection, 190°C, for 14 minutes. Press Confirm for P2, set the oven to Bake, Super Convection, 170°C, for 12 minutes and press Start to preheat.

Once preheated, remove the fries from the freezer and carefully add them to the basket, in a single layer, then cook for 14 minutes in P1. With 5 minutes remaining in P1, carefully turn and shake the fries and continue cooking. The oven will automatically switch to P2. With 4 minutes remaining in P2, carefully turn and shake the fries one more time.

The shoestring fries should be golden brown. If not, cook them a little longer. When ready, open the oven door and slide the basket out. Allow the fries to stand for 2 minutes before removing from the oven.

Slender, crisp and crazy moreish, these fries are the perfect sidekick for grilled steak and lobster and of course old friends for your burger, sub or sandwich. Feeling a little gourmet but want to keep it simple? Season with truffle salt or scatter them with parsley and grated parmesan.
