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
- Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 400 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure it reaches the proper temperature before cooking the fries.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
