Realized I was overfilling the basket after 6 months of soggy fries
I spent half a year wondering why my air fryer fries came out limp and sad every time, even when I followed recipes to the letter. Then one night after a crazy shift I threw in half the usual amount of potatoes and they came out crispy perfect. Has anyone else fought the urge to cram the basket full?
Oh man, that's the exact mistake I made too! It's wild how much room those little potatoes need to actually get crispy. A half-full basket is the secret that nobody tells you about.
