Variations

  • Add green chilies, schezwan sauce, or sriracha to make them spicy.
  • Oven bake is the other alternative to an air fryer if you don’t have a choice for an air fryer.
  • Add garlic powder to give them a garlicky flavour.
  • Use a handful of roasted pine nuts/ peanuts/almonds/walnuts for additional crunchiness.
  • Try other fresh herbs like parsley, mint, and rosemary for garnishing.

Equipment

I have air-fried carrots and potatoes in a Westinghouse oven with an air fryer for 20 minutes using a temperature of 200°C. Keep the veggies apart. If it is not possible, then flip the sides after some time to distribute the heat properly.

Use an air fryer you have, but watch out for cooking time.

What to serve with air fryer fries?

  • You can enjoy these air fryer carrot and potato fries with green dip, garlic dip, and avocado dip.
  • Make a yummy grain bowl by tossing it with quinoa, steamed rice, or fried rice.
  • These yummy crispy veggies go well with the soup.
  • Serve them with chicken chowmein or schezwan noodles.
  • For a hearty brunch enjoy them with fried eggs, scrambled eggs, omelets, or a poached egg.
  • Try this chicken drumsticks recipe to serve with these crunchy fries; you will go more!

FAQs

Is it healthy to cook vegetables in an air fryer?

Cooked vegetables generally have lower nutritional value than raw ones, with nutrient loss varying based on the cooking method. The longer vegetables are exposed to heat and water, the more nutrients they lose.
Air frying is a healthier cooking option since it minimizes direct heat exposure that can degrade vitamins and minerals. Additionally, the air fryer helps maintain a crisp texture by keeping the surface of the vegetables dry.

How do you reheat air-fried potatoes and carrots leftovers?

You can reheat leftover air-fried potatoes and carrots in two ways:
Air Fryer: Reheat at 170°C for about 5 minutes or until warmed to your liking.
Oven: Bake at 180°C for 10 minutes, adding more time if required for desired crispiness.

How long to cook potatoes and carrots in air fryer

The air-frying time for potatoes and carrots depends on their size and thickness:
Small slices (1-inch pieces): 15-20 minutes at 200°C, shaking halfway.
Larger chunks: 25-30 minutes at 200°C, shaking occasionally.
Whole baby potatoes & carrots: 30-35 minutes at 200°C, flipping halfway.

Tips

  1. Every air fryer is different, as is the cooking time. So adjust time accordingly.
  2. Add spices/seasoning as per your liking.
  3. Cut veggies into small chunks for a faster cooking process.
  4. Store the leftovers in the refrigerator. Reheat before use.
