Air Fryer Chips Recipe

I love proper fried chips, they are magic, however, air fryer chips run them a very close second, and they are far more convenient to cook and significantly healthier too!

Ingredients

  • 600 g Potatoes 3 Medium-Large
  • 20-25 g Beef Dripping 1½ tablespoon (lard or vegetable shortening also works well)
  • ½-¾ teaspoon Salt

Instructions

  • Peel the potatoes and then cut them into chips with a profile of around 1cm or just under ½".
  • Rinse the potatoes quickly in a bowl of cold water to remove some of the starch, then dry them thoroughly.
  • Pour over the melted fat; you can use any hard fat from vegetable fat to lard, bacon fat, or beef dripping. Beef dripping is my favourite.
  • Season the chips with salt and toss to coat.
  • Place the chips in the air fryer and cook for 16 minutes at 180°C or 350°F, giving them a shake halfway through. Then turn up the heat to 200°C or 400°F and cook for a final 5-7 minutes.
