Storage Information

Curly fries are best served hot and freshly cooked so try and make just the quantity needed however If there are any leftovers you can store them in the fridge for a couple of days.
They reheat well in the air fryer. To reheat and get back the crispy texture, put them in the air fryer rack or basket, put in the air fryer, and reheat at a temperature of 180C for 3-5 minutes or until they are heated and crispy.

Tips

  • Don't overfill the air fryer basket or tray. I recommend not to fill more than halfway. If you need to make a large quantity that doesn't fit at a go you can cook them in batches.
  • Don't thaw the fries. Cook straight from frozen for best result.
  • Shake the basket halfway during cooking to get evenly crisp fries.
  • Although most brand of curly fries come preseasoned, but if not to your taste, you can add salt, black pepper, or any seasoning of your choice.
  • Don't spray the fries with oil as most are precooked and do not require additional oil to cook them.
  • They are best served hot.

Frequently Asked Questions

How are curly fries made?

Curly fries are made by using a spiralizer to cut potatoes then soaking them, patting them dry before seasoning with paprika, garlic powder, pepper, and seasoning of choice.

Do I have to preheat the air fryer?

No, you don't have to. Preheating makes the food start cooking immediately and in a shorter time. Also, some air fryers come with automatic preheating. I have found my Probreeze air fryer and Cosori basket type air fryer do not need preheating for most recipes.

How much frozen curly fries to cook at once in air fryer?

This depends on the size of your air fryer. I use Cosori 5.5L, Probreeze 5.5litres, and Instant pot vortex 5.7 litres and they all fit 700g curly fries conveniently without overfilling the basket. A smaller air fryer will fit less. It's best not to fill more than half of the basket.

Do I need to season my frozen curly fries?

If it's preseasoned as most are and you are ok with the taste then you do not have to season them again. However, if you feel you want more salt or seasoning, or spice, then it's ok to season to ur taste.
