Who can ever get bored of delicious fries. I love all of them. French fries, waffle fries, steak fries. Most of us are French fry lovers. Air frying them in Ninja foodi gives me a healthier version than the deep fried ones you get in a restaurant. Also, it can be made anytime you want in comfort of your own kitchen. You need not wait for a door delivery. The results are as good as the deep-fried variety and bonus you have lesser oil intake.
There are many varieties of curly fries you can get from market. Many different brands sell it like Ore-Ida zesty curly fries, Wendy's, McCain Super Spirals, Lamb Weston. They are a great side to vegan hot dogs and pot pie. Crispy fries are a quick side and ready in no time. Its perfect when you want to eat some junk but still want less oil in it. This easy recipe can be made twice in the amount of fries in this entire bag. Add your own seasoning and give it a good shake once ready for a perfect flavor. cooking fries is a good idea when you do not want to cook something elaborate.
