Crispy french fries made in the air-fryer, with just a small amount of oil!

Since buying my air-fryer, I’ve been keeping it on my counter and playing around with it. Of course, I HAD to test out fries, and they definitely didn’t disappoint! The key is to turn them half way and don’t overcrowd the basket. One small potato fit perfect. To make double, you would have to make them in two batches.
