Once we learned how to make crave-worthy French fries in the air fryer, we thought that giving them a Parmesan-rosemary coating would be a cinch.

Mine is a $65 dollar door stop. Lol
ATK should do an episode about potatoe skin. How to clean, safe to eat, etc. Or an episode about "skin" for fruits and veg, how to clean should you eat, pros and cons. Thanks
Lotta work.
Huge waste of time and energy when other methods are faster for same or better results.
Personal tip to anyone making fries in an air fryer: Par-cook the fries first in boiling water, or even better and faster is the microwave. Make sure to dry them and then add a light dusting of cornstarch together with the oil. It helps in making the fries crisp and not limp. Blast with heat for about 15-minutes or so and you'll get the closest thing to fries without deep frying them.
I really like most of your videos, but I would never let hot water from the tap touch my food. Have you ever looked inside a water heater?
Can this be done in a convection oven also, or does it have to be a counter-top air fryer?
Just buy them frozen and air fry. You are not making them better than frozen.
Stop and toss every 5 minutes? Way too much time and attention for a side dish.
It is too much work to make simple fries…
I could make a quick meal in all that time vs. some fries😂😂😂😂😂
Over half an hour for a side dish? Too much.
I'm always confused by rinsing off as much starch as possible followed by adding cornstarch (which a lot of recipes do, some even let the potato starch collect in the bottom of the bowl and use that).
Where the heck do people get rosemary with strong enough stems to strip like that? I've tried it many times and the stems always break (and thyme is even worse).
Talking about until the water is clear lol
Julia's hair is magnificent.
The only thing french fries need is ketchup, and maybe some malt vinegar.
The trade off is time Vs oil amount. You can do deep fry in a 4qt kettle with less than 1/2 qt oil…10 minutes.
Air fry? 45 minutes or better and a lot of babysitting.
I think to save money on energy maybe using the oven once would be a better idea. My airfryer broke midway trying to do french fries multiple times to get crispy. Also, some newer ovens come with air frying which can save time.
But deep frying is best in seconds than 15 minutes Air Fry Yuck…
FINALLY! A recipe for folks who want to spend an hour and a half cooking 2 servings of fries!
They have a recipe for making fries in the oven that produces way more, is far less fussy, and still only uses a little bit of oil. Use that one.

So much effort just to not use a ventilated oven or a convection oven, which is basically the same as an air fryer, but more practical and capable of baking as well.
way too many steps for a french fry
I'm sorry, but those did not look crispy at all. Makes me question how much testing went into this recipe, and how much testing goes into your product testing these days.
This recipe is a fail though… 🙁 it just doesn't work well…
Just a suggestion, you guys should make creamy Cajun chicken pasta.
Soak them, soak them, then soak them again; dry them; cook them, cook them; dress them; then cook them again, and remember to check them multiple times; then dress them….oh and then dress them one last time. 50 minutes later you’ve got some fries. Ummm no thanks.
I’m sure they are very good but those would be gone in five minutes.
❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
Why do the people in the back room always have to wear masks?
lost me at the pleebs wearing masks in the background.. we know who the important people are..
What? No garlic?!
i will have mine without all that cheese. you trying to make me poop my pants!!
Potatoes have so little flavor this is required to make them palatable.
Why don’t you use a liner? Did you test the recipe using one?
Too much time and effort for such a small amount! Better to double deep fry then use the oven or air fryer to add the flavoring.
I've been making these for a couple months and it's only gotten easier and more passive when doing so. They're crispy on the outside and fluffy inside. If you're looking for crispy and crunchy, try the ATK patatas bravas recipe
Looks delicious but a lot of work.
Yummy
Yummy
Not a fan of using hot water from a tank for soaking food in…Magnesium or aluminum rod in water heater, and other metals. Tankess ok though.
My neighbor complained about the noise my air fryer makes i had to move or not use a air fryer
Should use extra virgin olive oil or avocado oil. Shouldn’t use omega 6 oils.
nice, highest possible surface area, and forcing hot oxygen over the vegetable oil. the healthiest, least artery clogging way to cook stuff.
Please do not use hot tap water and boil some…
This is because hot water can dissolve contaminants more quickly than cold water and hot water systems (tanks, boilers, pipes, etc.)
Its a place for bad bacteria to grow as it remains hot without boiling….
Harmfull contaminants from the talk and pipes..
Im starting to doubt these hosts.
Just boild some water and toss them in for a short time, the boiling water will also make drying faster and I'll start to evaporate when you take out the fries.
Do they choke homeless guys to get off?
Hope they're worth all the time & effort put into it
