Crispy fries infused with pickle and Parmesan, made in the air fryer for a deliciously tangy, cheesy treat.
# Components:
→ Potatoes
01 - 4 medium russet potatoes, cut into fries
→ Marinade
02 - 2 tablespoons dill pickle juice
→ Seasonings
03 - 1 teaspoon garlic powder
04 - 1 teaspoon onion powder
05 - 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
06 - 1/2 teaspoon salt
07 - 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
→ Toppings
08 - 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
09 - 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill (optional)
→ Oil
10 - 2 tablespoons olive oil
# Preparation Steps:
01 - Place the cut potatoes in a large bowl. Pour over the dill pickle juice and allow to marinate for 10 minutes to absorb the zesty flavor.
02 - Drain the marinated potatoes and pat them thoroughly dry using paper towels to ensure crispiness.
03 - Toss the dried potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper until they are evenly coated.
04 - Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
05 - Arrange the seasoned fries in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook for 15–18 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through the cooking process, until the fries are golden brown and delightfully crispy.
06 - Transfer the freshly cooked fries to a clean bowl and immediately sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and chopped fresh dill. Toss gently to ensure even distribution of toppings.
07 - Serve the Pickle Parmesan Air Fryer Fries hot. They are excellent on their own or with optional extra pickle slices or your preferred dipping sauce.
