Description

Crispy and flavorful Air Fryer Sweet Potato Fries seasoned with chili powder, cumin, and sea salt, perfect as a healthy and delicious side dish or snack ready in just 25 minutes.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 medium to large sweet potato
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Fresh parsley for garnish if desired

Instructions

  1. Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 400 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure it reaches the proper temperature before cooking the fries.
  2. Prepare Sweet Potatoes: Cut the sweet potato in half lengthwise, then cut each half into 4 equal wedges, resulting in a total of 8 wedges.
  3. Season Fries: In a bowl, whisk together chili powder, sea salt, black pepper, and ground cumin. Sprinkle this spice mixture over the sweet potato wedges evenly.
  4. Coat with Oil: Pour the olive oil over the wedges and toss using tongs to coat the fries evenly with both the oil and spices.
  5. Cook Fries: Place the fries in the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10 minutes. Then, flip the fries and continue cooking for an additional 10 minutes or until they are crisp to your liking.
  6. Garnish and Serve: Once cooked, garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve immediately with your favorite sauces or dips for a tasty snack or side dish.

Notes

  • Make sure to cut the sweet potato wedges evenly for uniform cooking.
  • Adjust the seasoning according to your spice preference.
  • Shaking or flipping the fries halfway through cooking ensures even crispiness.
  • Use a little cooking spray if you want a lighter oil coating.
  • Serve with ketchup, aioli, or your favorite dipping sauce for extra flavor.
