💰Cheaper: canola oil

Avocado oil is healthier with a higher smoke point.

salt

🥗Healthier: sea salt

💰Cheaper: table salt

Sea salt adds minerals and a different flavor.

ketchup

🥗Healthier: salsa

💰Cheaper: homemade ketchup

Salsa is fresher and lower in sugar.

Cut the potatoes into French fry shape.

Soak the cut potatoes in water for about 30 minutes.

Strain all the water from the soaked potatoes.

Add 0.5 teaspoon of salt and 1 tablespoon of cooking oil to the potatoes and mix well.

Grease the air fryer basket with 1 to 2 drops of cooking oil using your hand, tissue paper, or a brush.

Add the mixed French fries to the greased air fryer basket.

Attach the basket to the air fryer and set the temperature to 200 degrees Celsius.

Set the timer for 25 minutes (or 30 minutes for crispier fries).

After 15 minutes, take out the air fryer basket and change the side of the French fries using a nonstick spoon or spatula.

Cook for an additional 10 minutes until the fries are done.

Optionally, sprinkle Chaat Masala over the fries before serving.
