Aloo | Potato Finger Chips in Airfryer

Monday, June 07, 2021

During Christmas we purchased a Airfryer. Had been keeping eye out and doing my research on which Airfryer to purchase. Finally, decided on Ninja Foodi 8qt, which is also 9 in 1 unit.Ordered online on Amazon during the sale. The first thing we tried out when it arrived is Potato Finger chips. basically French fries. It was ready in 30 minutes from Prep -> cooking -> cleanup (& eating ). This is a very simple dish, I would quickly prepare as a side-dish {click here) or snack. I used partially cook the cut potatoes in MWO, then pan roast rest of the way. This is the steps I follow to make potato finger chips in Airfryer.

Ingredients:

2 - big potatoes
1 tsp - turmeric powder
½ tsp - red chili powder |or| as per taste
1 tbs - bagel seasoning or any other flavoring mix (optional)
1 tbs - oil
salt - as per taste

Method:

Wash potatoes. Peel the skin and place the potatoes in a bowl with regular cold water.
Cut potatoes into long strips or french fries shaped pieces. Drop the cut pieces into the same bowl of water.
Once all the potatoes are cut, rinse the cut potatoes.
Drain all the water out.
Add salt, turmeric powder, chili powder, flavoring mix over the cut potatoes, mix or toss around to coat the pieces.
Layer the Airfryer basket with parchment paper. This step is optional.
Pour the potato mixture into the Airfryer basket.

Set Airfryer to 390F, and Airfry for 20 minutes. - which is default on my Airfryer
Say about after 10 minutes of cooking open and stir the potatoes around so it may cook and roast evenly.
Once done, transfer the finger chips on a serving plate and serve along with ketchup or hot sauce
