Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Wash and peel the potatoes.
- Grate the potatoes using a grater. After grating, place them in a bowl of cold water to remove excess starch. Let them sit for about 5 minutes.
- Drain the potatoes and then squeeze out as much water as possible using a clean kitchen towel or paper towel. This will help the potatoes cook evenly and become crispy.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated potatoes, shredded mozzarella cheese, and corn flour.
- Add salt and pepper to taste if desired.
- Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined and the mixture holds together when pressed.
- Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.
- Take a small amount of the potato mixture and shape it into sticks or logs approximately 3 inches long and 1/2 inch thick. Repeat with the remaining mixture.
- Lightly spray the air fryer basket with non-stick cooking spray or brush with a small amount of oil to prevent sticking.
- Place the potato sticks in the air fryer basket in a single layer, ensuring they are not touching. You may need to cook them in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
- Air fry the potato sticks at 400°F (200°C) for 10-15 minutes, turning them halfway through the cooking time, until they are golden brown and crispy.
- While the potato sticks are cooking, place the sour cream in a small serving bowl. You can also add some finely chopped chives or green onions to the sour cream if desired for added flavor.
- Once the potato sticks are cooked, remove them from the air fryer and allow them to cool slightly.
- Serve the hot, crispy Potato Sticks with the sour cream dip on the side. Enjoy!
Tips:
- Choose starchy potatoes like Russet for the best texture.
- Cut the potatoes into even sticks to ensure they cook evenly in the air fryer.
- Be sure to shake the air fryer basket halfway through cooking to avoid sticking and promote even crisping.
- Don't overcrowd the air fryer; cook in batches if necessary to allow air to circulate properly around each potato stick.
- For extra flavor, feel free to add your favorite herbs and spices to the mixture.
These air fryer French onion potato sticks are a perfect combination of savory flavors and crispy texture. Whether you're serving them as a side dish or enjoying them as a snack, they're sure to be a crowd-pleaser. Follow the tips for best results, and enjoy the deliciousness with each bite!
