Ingredients

400 g Frozen Oven Chips

Instructions

If your air fryer requires pre-heating, start this setting now and allow it to run.
Tip roughly 400g Frozen Oven Chips into the air fryer basket. Spread them out so they are mostly in a single layer where possible.
Air fry for 15 minutes at 200c/390f.
Open the drawer and give them a shake around halfway through the cooking. You can do this a couple of additional times especially if you have packed in the chips.
Check the colour and crispiness and if you want them to be darker/crispier then continue air frying until they're to your liking.

Notes

Oil - You don't need to add oil to oven chips because they already contain oil in their coating. But if you want extra crispy chips, you can spray them with a little vegetable oil - this is a good idea too if you are going to add..
Seasoning - You can add any seasoning you like to plain oven chips - try adding a little oil and the seasoning around 5 minutes before the end of the cooking time so it doesn't catch and burn.
The air fryer version of this recipe is tested in a Cosori Lite (‎CAF-LI401S) with a 3.8 litre capacity. The square(ish) shaped basket is 21cm x 21cm and 24cm on the diagonal.
Not all models advise preheating is required. Please follow the recommended instructions for your model. Mine has a specific preheat setting which is 4 minutes at 205c.
For this recipe, I can just fit 400g of quite large straight cut oven chips in the basket at a time. They sit in pretty much a single layer and this gives plenty of room to allow air to circulate.
As all air fryer models are a little different, you may find that you can fit more or less in at a time. Some models include stacking shelves which will increase capacity.
Required cooking times and temperatures can also vary between models and brands. If you know that your air fryer runs a little hotter than most recipes suggest, use a lower temperature. And vice versa. Equally if you find that food cooks more quickly in your machine than instructions usually state, reduce the cooking time (or check it earlier) and vice versa.
