What sauce do you use for your french fries?
the heinz ketchup with tabasco in it
@@IronmanKMSA Yummy! Nothing like adding a little kick to the fries :)
A garlic rouille (French fresh roasted garlic mayo with roasted red pepper ), plus I add a small amount of Dijon mustard! Hey, I’m French, so that makes sense! Thx for your videos!
I don't use any sauce...just salt on the cooked french fries. I rarely eat french fries alone. I use them with some roast meat/chicken, fish whatever. I also like french fries and eggs sunny side up. I've just received the air fryer lid. I have an IP Ultra. I also have a Tefal air frier, which is easier to use as you don't have to turn food, but I don't like cleaning its paddle. And it's not good for breaded meat.
I find a hack for making more fries at once!
Put a nice amount of fries in the bottom of the instapot as shown. Then place the broil/ dehydrating tray on top and place more fries on that.
I cooked at 400 degrees f for 25 mins. I flipped them at the 15 min mark. I tried this with wing dings and it was delicious. Same time and temperature.
Oh yeah and to take the tray out to flip the food on the bottom I had to use two of my hand mixer beaters. I stuck the ends of them into the small holes of the tray, pulled back at a slight angle and pulled it up and out.
I used Pam cooking spray and a little salt. Put in fryer for ~22 min turning them once at the 11 min mark. Perfection!
I will need to try with the pam cooking spray. I wondered if the canola spray would smoke, but I am trying this next. Thank you watching, and commenting :)
@@NightTimeMommyReviews instant pot says not to use Pam or sparys like that, it can damage the pot.
👍 👍 appreciate the video very informative & easy to follow steps! 👍 👍
Ok, you made enough for one person after chopping like 5 potatoes. What happens if you actually fill the basket?
drives me crazy that the lid cord is allowed to rest on the edge of the pot after preheating (around 7:00 minutes in).
I currently have my potatoes in the water and will be making fries in my new Duo crisp & air fryer. Which is my first thing to make with my new toy. :D Thanks for the video.
Yay! You will love them! Thanks for watching :)
You shouldn't çheck too often so it browns better. You really don't need to turn the fries too many times either. If you leave it alone for 15 to 20 minutes before you check it, it would brown sooner & nicely. :)
Thanks for sharing the video, but this was legit exhausting to watch how much work it took to make these Fries. It's almost like "The Juice isn't worth the squeeze"
Can you get the time down by first pressure cooking the sliced potatoes for a minute or two and then fry them?
So it's not faster than putting them in my oven, yet I can make enough for my entire family in the oven. Is this really worth it?
If you at the same time have meat in the oven and the top of the stove filled with kettles, it’s great to have the instant pot.
Enjoy all your air fryer lid recipes; would like the name of the potato chopper...you used for the fries.
Link is in the description...
Thank you for the video. Can you use two layers. I have the duo crisp intant pot that came with an air fryer lid! Well as a tasty to set in the air fry basket. So i could have 2 cooking layers . Will that work?
Sorry you got a bunch of snarky comments, your video was very helpful for me as someone who bought the air fryer lid and is looking for how to use it.
Thank you so much Bear & Quackers, I appreciate it :) I am glad I could help
Haven’t seen any new recipes...probably because of our crazy world right now....good job...be safe...Donna from Canada
Hi Donna, thank you so much. I uploaded a video last week, and I am working on this weeks video. Just in case you missed it, here is the link :) ua-cam.com/video/ocTTyIIt2Y0/v-deo.html
Pinterest has countless recipes for air fryer lid
Yum!
Mmhmm :)
YUM! YUM! YUM!!
Thanks for the video. Nice way to cook fries. I know it can be faster with a dedicated air fryer, but this gets the job done, and the fries look pretty good!😋😋
Thank you so much :)
Hola! Muy buen video. Gracias!! De qué tamaño es tu olla?
Thanks for sharing your videos on your UA-cam channel how to make homemade French fries in your instant pot air fryer. I. Just got my very frist inset pot at the yard sale
Love that french fry cutter.
Right? Its really easy to use. I have used many fry cutters, and most of them do not work well, but this little fry cutter makes it soo easy to cut fries.
@@NightTimeMommyReviews , I don't see the link with the info about that fry cutter. Can you provide the details so I can buy one?
That’s awesome. Thank you !
That fry cutter is so cool idk why it doesn't have better reviews!!! Love your channel! New sub!!
Thank you so much 😁
they say it cuts the plastic leaving tiny plastic paces in your fries
Can i use the metal divider to cook fries at the bottom and on top at the same time? ( too cook more at the same time) will the fries at the bottom will still be cruchy?
There's another video abt that. Don't think it worked too well.
I tried that and you can't stir the lower level very well.
@ 9:00 Nice Catch :-)
Can youmention where you got the potatoe chopper? There are a few on the market but most of them got bad reviews, but the one you showed seems to be ideal.
Yes ofcourse :) The fry cutter is from kohls www.kohls.com/product/prd-2994090/berghoff-cook-co-french-fry-cutter.jsp?skuid=65622762&ci_mcc=ci&FOOD%20PREP&CSE&CID=shopping15&pid=googleadwords_int&af_channel=CSE&gclid=CjwKCAiAluLvBRASEiwAAbX3GbY8pl9tBvTnw6zNOehgL1CA5LTFxwxmTIvGVTLA6j9ld-bWUSWZhhoCo1IQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds
You can just spin them in a salad spinner- save the paper
OMG now thats a life hack! Thank you! :)
Definitely a life hack and another use for the salad spinner!!!!
Very helpful video.kindly let us know about the potato cutter from where u bought and how much it cost
Would it be ok to season the fries to begin with? Salt, parmesan, pepper, or chili powder..etc?
Yes, I think it would be best as the oil will help it stick :)
I currently have a Cosori air fryer and was wondering if it was worth it to make the switch to the instant pot air fryer lid. Should I keep my Cosori or just upgrade to the instant pot lid?
Nicely done! I can’t wait to try this myself. I think I’m going to try sweet potato fries. I did not know that soaking the fries in water takes out the starch. I learned something new!
Like someone earlier mentioned, I don’t have that fancy oil sprayer. I will use a can of PAM olive oil.
Thank you! Sweet potato fries are yummy too with the air fryer lid. The Pam spray works great too. Thanks for watching :)
I have the same oil sprayer. It was VERY cheap from Amazon. Much cheaper than buying PAM in the long run.
You can get the oil sprayer at the dollar store for about $3.00.
@@anonnnnnsh do you get 3 for that price ?
@@daypet1 You get one for $4.00 now.
trying to follow your recipe right now - first AFL recipe...... What oil sprayer do you recommend that has minimum plastic
TIA
I have this on order but it looks like too much work for me.
Can you put seasoning on before putting them in?
Do the lid suppose to lock? Because mines move…. Not sure if it supposed to move
Can you use Pam?
Where can you buy the potato slicer
I don’t mean to be a kill joy but I get the same results with my convection oven and I can make a whole pan of them.
I think they cook faster is you use the elevator tray or shelf insert.
What’s the name of the fry cutter?? Thanks
There was no need to preheat as that has a preheat function the timer will not start till it reaches the temperature. taking off the lid simply wasted all the electricity and let the heat out, the equivalent of leaving your oven door open after you've preheated it
Do you have to add oil to it tho?
I love my instant pot. But this is an insanely convoluted and lengthy process to get a handful of good crispy fries. Cooking fries this way uses about 5 times more electricity than needed. Suggest just using a dedicated air fryer for this task. The fundamental flaw with using an instant pot to air fry is the distance from the heat to the food. Also, the cost of the air fryer lid is more than the instant pot and more than most dedicated air fryers on the market today. I don't doubt the results from instant pot air frying can be good. It's just far from the best tool for this job.
I agree, it is a lengthy process, and using a dedicated air fryer may be the way, but for some the instant pot is the only way they cook their meals. I know there are tons of people who live in a camper, dorm, or even rent a small room, and use their instant pot for everything. I don't think the air frying french fries in the lid is for everyone, but it was fun to experiment with the lid, and try something new. Thanks for watching :)
Yes, probably better to just buy frozen fries and heat them up with the Instant Pot Fryer Lid.
@@NightTimeMommyReviews I have a tiny kitchen and no room for another machine. I really appreciate this recipe.. my kiddo loves fries. 😊
you cant fill the pot with more potatoes....i mean portion like this is for small mouse......also did you try without oil?
30 min for one serving of fries..? That doesn't seem very efficient
Will it be the same quality of the fries if you put twice or triple amount of fresh fry in the pot ?
Of course :) I would just try not to fill it above the half way point in the basket
Use the raw tops for pre biotic fiber
I have never tried it, but I will try :)
Will a 6 quart air fryer lid fit a 8 quart instapot ?
No
And sending me more of your amazing homemade cooked meal for the inset pot like this one and what is the best cooking oil you are using to doing your homemade French fries 🍟 sending it to me on my UA-cam channel
How many times did you have to do this for that whole bowl of raw potatoes?
Hi Malinda, I only really needed to make it in one batch, but the reason I held off was because the people that were going to eat them would not be arriving until later in the evening. You can make the entire batch in one sitting tho, and it would be the same process.
Thanks for the video. I still don't understand why you cut the potato to cut the potato. Lol I think you could have just popped in there and cut them. I've never used grape seed oil. I wonder how crispy it comes out compared to peanut oil or vegetable oil. Also any time you are cooking potatoes.... if you rinse them or soak them in water they become less crunchy with all other methods of cooking (deep fry pan fry) I haven't air fried but I'm curious if you don't soak them are they too crunchy?
I cut the potato at the beginning to make it easier to cut in the french fry cut press. You can always use the potato without cutting it first, but because it doesn't have a flat surface you may need to use a bit more force to press the potato in, and cut. To use less force, you can cut as I did in the video :)
In regards to the oil, I do not believe the type of oil would make a difference in crunchiness. I have made fries with both avocado and grapeseed oil, and they were both similar experiences.
I have tried soaking and not soaking, and my experience is that when you soak the fries, and pat them dry afterwards, they are much crunchier than the non soaked fries. Hope this helps :) Thanks for watching.
Dont have to cut ends just push down on the blades
The potatoes would cook faster if you blanched your fries first.
Hi Nancy, thank you for your suggestion. I am going to try that next time. I have heard of blanching, but I think I was so excited to make the video, I didn't even think about it. Thank you so much again for commenting, I really appreciate it. Thank you for watching 😊
Would you really save time if you have to blanch them though? Lol
Why use the oil in the air fryer? How will the fries come out without adding the oil?
Hi Madeline :) For some food items it varies. For example chicken wings have alot of fat and do not necessarily need oil. In some cases, food will need oil to crisp up. With air fryers most of them advertise crisping for most foods with 1 - 2 tbsp of oil which is still great compared to deep frying in a large amount of oil. Without oil, the fries will come out similar to when baked. They wont have too much of a crisp to them.
I hope you added the bits you cut, 25 min for one survint of fries, it is not very environmental friendly. They look good but it would take 10 min deep fried for 4 servings in a regular pan.
🍒🍒🙏🙏👍
Do you put anything in the stainless steel pan? Water, etc under the air basket?
Hi Divya, I didnt only because I wanted the fries to crisp up. I have heard that using water will cause moisture and this would prevent the fries from crisping with the air fryer lid.
@@NightTimeMommyReviews thank you! What else have you tried? Could you give some examples of times /temperatures?
If my grandkids had to wait that long for their fries, they’d disown me. And a bigger batch would take how much longer? A turkey fryer with oil cooks all I need for everybody in less than ten minutes. I like the old fashion way. Faster and tastier!
Over checking!!!!
Really no need to soak the fries, but they do need to be coated with an oil. I would have used the included tray in the basket, so they aren't so far from the heat.
Its not absolutely necessary, but soaking them helps them get crispier. Good idea, I will try using the broiler tray next time. Thank you for watching :)
Night Time Mommy Reviews it’s not the water but the oil that gets them crispy.
You are incorrect, soaking in water makes them crisper
@@squirrelavengerr31 I've found no proof that soaking them in water makes them crisper.
@@Resist4 When potatoes are peeled and sliced, they have an excess of starch on them (that liquid white stuff all over the potatoes). If the fries are not rinsed beforehand, the starch on the surface will prevent the moisture from evaporating. It's not that the fries will taste bad if you don't soak them in water, but they won't be as crispy. It will also help prevent them from sticking to each other. Some restaurants will actually boil the fries (not fully), which taste REALLY good - but who's got time for that... :) The temp of the oil is by far more important, but blanching them will turn out an even better fry.
Where did you get the air fryer lit ? Nice recipe
Thank you :) I ordered the lid on amazons website amzn.to/36bleSh
Videos too long it seems like this is your first time cooking french fries hate to be critical, but video should be fast and to the point
Actual video starts at 1:24 ; thank me later
Can you air fryer frozen fries?
Great idea! I will try to record that soon :)
Throw some steak and shake seasoning for an extra kick
il n'est pas nécessaire de couper le bout de la patates, ça gaspille, il suffit juste de commencer à l'enfoncer dans le support!
Never ask Like and subscribe before we have seen any value!!!!! And 14 minutes to explain 3 minutes of instruction, geez.

Cringe @ knife on metal, but thanks for the video! Will be trying in our new duo crisp.
Isn't the whole idea of using an air fryer is to not use oil?
well, it uses a lot LESS oil - and if you use the right kinds of oil, the oil itself isn't unhealthy.
Too many "You Guys" ... it is distracting and bad grammer.
Why are you pre-heating for 20 minutes with the air-fryer lid? I'm very sure you absolutely don't need to do this. That's like pre-heating your hair dryer for 20 minutes.
I don't preheat for 20 minutes. The device will show "on" (this is the preheating stage) for about 2 minutes and the time will start. Hope this helps :)
The Instant Pot website recommends pre heating

I trust my fries on a small cookie sheet and put them in my toaster oven. Faster than this.
👍👍👌💣💣
You're dulling your knife but cutting on a steel countertop. Let the knife do the work instead of pressing down, use a slicing motion.
I can see I'm going to hated. Too much work keep checking on and off every five minute for only a few French fry in the pot. It's a big NO for me!
$1.00 menu fries from McDonald's or 25 min and 30 bucks in electricity. Hmm
Dude, seriously, chill. First, I can’t trust you because you think the crap at McDonalds is actually food. Second, get a grip on yourself on the cost. You exaggerate JUST a bit. A 1500 Watt air fryer running for 25 minutes costs about $0.04 at $0.15 per KWh. If you’re paying $30 for 4 cents’ worth of electricity, MOVE.

Just wanted to let you know that I did a search in DuckDuckGo for "instant pot air fryer recipes" and your video came up first. I've had my air fryer lid for 3-4 years now and never actually used it. This looks like a great recipe to start with. :)
