Equipment
- 1 air fryer
- 1 oven tray
- 1 Knife & cutting board
- 1 Mixing bowl
- 1 Kitchen towel
- 1 baking paper
Ingredients
- 1 sweet potato
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 pinches salt
Instructions
- Peel the sweet potato and cut it into thin sticks, slightly thinner than regular French fries.
- Soak the sweet potato sticks in cold water to remove excess starch (recommended: 30 minutes).
- Drain the water and pat the sweet potato sticks dry with a kitchen towel or paper towel.
- Toss the sweet potato sticks with 2 tbsp of olive oil until evenly coated.
- Spread the sweet potato sticks evenly on an oven tray and sprinkle 2 pinches of salt over them.
- Cook in an air fryer at 190–200°C (375–390°F) for 15–30 minutes. Flip them every 7 minutes for even cooking. Adjust the time and temperature according to your air fryer model.
- Bake until crispy like chips. For extra crunch, you can bake for up to 30 minutes until slightly browned.
- Once cooked, sprinkle a pinch of salt to taste for extra flavor. It makes them even more delicious!
