Ever since I got my Air Fryer, I don’t go out to restaurants as much. Thanks for this video as I’m cooking Fries tonight 🙌
That is great to hear. Enjoy your fries!
I heard a lot of people say that after they got theirs!!!
sorry to be so off topic but does someone know a trick to log back into an instagram account..?
I somehow lost my account password. I love any tricks you can give me.
@Misael Harry Instablaster :)
@Drake Curtis Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site thru google and im waiting for the hacking stuff atm.
Takes quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
I have watched many videos on air fryer cooking but your no-nonsense (unedited - lol!) approach has won me over. Liked and subscribed. Thank you!
I’m glad it helped! Always fun to leave in a good blooper 😆
4 years later and this video is still helping older hands attempt to grapple with the air fryer 😃👌
Yay I’m glad to hear it!
I just recently bought a air fryer. I watched your video and my boneless chicken came out amazing. Did it exactly how you made yours. I’m about to make the fries today. This is my new favorite channel.
But she is a vegan cook how did u learn how to make chicken from her video’s ?
Turned out great! Just switched to 390F in last 4 minutes. Perfect 👍🏼
Ooh good to know! What sort of air fryer are you using?
I wanted to come through the screen. 😋Thanks for the tips with the do’s and dont’s. I got an air fryer for Christmas and still trying to figure it out before I unbox it.
Oh you are so welcome!
Me too. My wife got 1 this Christmas. I'm watching what I can so that I can cook too.
Thanks! First time making fries tonight and they were a hit.
D-op1 woo woo! 🙌
Thank you! I'm about to try frozen fries for the first time. Your video helped.
p.s. your hair is super cute!
Oh I’m so glad it was helpful! And thank you!
I love that you didn’t edit that little blooper out. Love this tip cause I just got an air fryer for Christmas & I wanna make fries first in it.
Thank you! Enjoy the air fryer and your fries!
Just got the Ultrean 8.5qt air fryer yesterday and I'm so excited to use it! I'm Vegetarian and I buy some frozen Gardein products.
EvCupcake very cool! Any breaded Gardein stuff is great in the air fryer. So are their meatballs. 10 min at 400F works well in ours for all of that stuff! Yours is larger so the cooking time might vary by a minute or two.
@@glueandglitter Have you done a video with making homemade cubed potatoes in the air fryer?
EvCupcake you know, I haven’t! But what a good idea! I’ll add this to my to do list
Stop eating the food that my food eats!
Well put together video, very simple, informative and easy to understand. I did exactly what you said, same seasoning, same heat and time, only difference was the air fryer and OMG these fries were amazing. Thank you for making this video.
You are welcome. I always love hearing about french fry success!
Beautiful fries. Thanks. Looking for more of your recipes
Thank you! Welcome , and holler if you need help finding something specific.
OMG when you pushed the tray back in and nothing happened...the look on your face 🤣🤣🤣 I gave you a like just for that.
😂 I was sure I’d blown a fuse!
Ya that was great..LOL
Just got mine and cant wait to try it
Eugenia Lima-Raposo I’m so excited for you! Enjoy it!
Just made them and they came out great!
Awesome! Thank you for letting me know. I love to hear it.
just got mine for mother's day.. so testing it using frozen fries - wouldn't you know it, the recipe wasn't in the 'how to care' booklet that came with it.. so yup, on to you tube and yours was the first one to pop up.. and yup.. am now a new subscriber.. I am not a vegan or vegetarian - however, I do love to eat vegetables and being a diabetic (type II) I have to eat healthy.. Oils are not my friend.. so thank you for the time you've put into sharing this information with us..
Blessings
Aurora
PS - will be definitely looking at all to be able to make full use of my new 'gadget'.. so my kids will know I am truly happy with the thought that went into getting this for me....:)
Happy belated Mother’s Day, Aurora! I’m glad this video was helpful. Enjoy your new air fryer, and feel free to drop any questions you may have in the comments. I love helping people learn to use their air fryers!
Thanks for helping me get the nerve to use an air fryer for the first time. I decided to cook the entire bag of Alexia Sweet Potato fries at 400⁰ and they were done in about 12 minutes. I made sure that I occasionally shook the pan like you suggested.
Awesome! Happy that I could help.
Thank you. This video was very helpful.my fries turned out lovely!!!
I'm happy to hear it!
Thanks Lady!!!!
I'm cooking fries tonight! Looks so easy!
Hooray!
Late to it! Day 3 with our Airfryer. Gonna try some fried fish (another video) and frozen fries. Thanks a seasoned bunch!
Beautiful fries and maker 😋
Wow. you make it so simple. Im go try it tomorrow
Enjoy your fries!
Thank you for posting this.
i just bought airfry and wanna try these tips , its simple and understandable for asian like me :) thanks !
Thanks so much for a great video!
You are very welcome!
You're awesome simple and to the point ☝️
Thank you!!
The thing we didn’t know we needed 👏👏👏
🙌🙌🙌
ive been fiddling around with my air fryer since april/ i IMMEDIATELY gave my microwave away NO NEED for it no more/ i purchased 3 different flavors of oil spray i notice with mine the fries come out better with a spray of oil on them YUM! GREAT video... thanks.
You are welcome! Be careful using aerosol spray oil inside your basket. It can damage the nonstick coating over time. You may want to spray the fries in a bowl before transferring to the basket to be on the safe side.
@@glueandglitter i dont see how or my nonstick pans would be completely destroyed by now XD
@@viivcreations9161 You are lucky! Makers of nonstick cookware advise against using aerosol sprays. Here's an example: anolon.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/321/~/using-non-stick-cooking-sprays-on-nonstick-product#:~:text=You%20should%20avoid%20the%20use,to%20stick%20in%20the%20product.
I love your personality and your haircut!🥺🥺
Thank you so much, Lini!
It did answer my question and thank you for that.
You are welcome!
Very nice, love mine!
I’m glad to hear it! 🙌
I just realized I have been cooking them at too low a temperature. 370 for ten minutes and they haven't been very crispy. Thanks for the tip!
You are so welcome, Joe!
nice one , thanks it was a big help
You are welcome, Alexander!
Fantastic, really helpful, enjoyed your video. Can't wait to try this out in my air fryer.. still awaiting delivery.. 🙂
Have fun with the air fryer! I hope it arrives soon.
@@glueandglitter Thanks Becky - still no air fryer, sadly. Can't wait to try out these vegan goodies, hopefully over the holidays!
So yummy
New sub and new airfryer owner who has never used her air fryer LOL just been watching tons of videos. This wouldn't seem relatively easily and made me excited to use my air fryer thank you
Oh I’m so glad it was helpful. lmk if there are other air fryer topics you’d like me to cover.
I thought I was going to break it so I got on ur vid so my mom wouldn’t bear my ass
Haha glad I could help! It’s very hard to break an air fryer. I’ve dropped my basket more than once, and so far so good 😂
I love the fries with the ridges in them
Me too! They hold onto the most bbq sauce!
Oops! It's not plugged in... Totally love the honesty of the video.. No fake editing!
Bravo!! 🙂👍
Lol thank you!
yo my fries came out sooo good ty miss!
Hooray! You are welcome!
Thanks for the tip!
You are welcome!
I love my air fryer. Corn dogs are awesome in an air fryer too. 400 for 12 to 15 mins. It's the greatest corn dog ever.
Ooh yeah. I do the field roast mini corn dogs in ours. 12 min is perfect for the minis. So crunchy!
According to the recent Nutrition Diva podcast with Liz Shaw, they suggest always placing less food, and the importance of putting everything DRY. However, if going straight from frozen, is there going to be water as it heats? Is it best to thaw, let it dry, then put in? BTW, I have an Actifry T-FAL, does that make any difference?
Yes, less food is correct. I put them in frozen, and they come out great. They're not frozen in water, so any moisture would be what you'd find in the fresh potato.
I haven't used an Actifry-style air fryer before, so I can't speak to that.
Omg I can’t wait to send this to my mom she’s going to be happy
Aw yay! Love to make folks happy!
First time cooking french fries using Air Fryer...they were delish.!!
Love to hear it! 🙌
@@glueandglitter no oil is needed for them to be crispy?
@@robertoventura3071 nope! They deep fry them before freezing, so there's plenty of oil happening already.
Great vid girl !!
Thank you!
thank you !
Great video but may I make a suggestion put the fries in a one gallon zip lock to season shake them up real good till its even then stick them in
I’d season after cooking so you don’t burn the spices, but love the plastic bag suggestion!
I find it better to add powders like chili, garlic etc after they come out and shake em up.
Thank you very much. I'm surprised frozen foods don't include air fryer instructions nowadays
Glad it was helpful!
It’s coming!
Thank you so much 😊
You are welcome!
Just made them following your instructions, and they're perfect. Thank you.
You are welcome! Thank you for coming back to leave a comment, Mikail!
YOU ARE SWEET ❤️ Thanks
You are welcome!
Do you have to defrost the fries or just chuck them in frozen into the air fryer?
Chuck ‘em straight in! 🙌
Thanks.
Do i need to shake while the air fryer is still on the 10 min (while it still on frying mode)..or i split it half half..5 min - shake - 5 min?
You can do it either way. Whatever you’re more comfortable with. 😀
Cool snake plant in the background and thanks for the video.
Thank you!
These videos are the soul reason I have not burned the house down while babysitting
Lol glad I could help! 🙌
Keep us Air Fryer bakers inform please. I really love French fries🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Is there anything in particular that you want a recipe for? I can try to make that happen!
Yes, chicken breast. I can't seem to make the color look brown, like in the restaurant. I'm just learning how to cook.
Simple Vegan Recipes by Glue & Glitter your French fries looks good I can taste them🙏🏽🙏🏽
@@karlsheldon60 oh, that I am not able to do. I don't eat chicken. If you have any plant-based requests, though, let me know! I'm happy to help.
Seasoning before or after cooking? Because I think seasoning them before cooking will waste most of your seasoning in the heat.
I agree. Season after. I’d do it immediately, so the oil on them is still hot, so your seasonings stick better.
So what all do I need to make thus
I gave this a like because that haircut is kind of artsy tartsy 🤓❤️
Haha thank you!
This video was great!
If you are using the ninja air fryer with the dual basket, do 14 min no pre heat!
Oh thank you! I get questions about that style, so I know folks will find this helpful.
Thanks
Wonderful video! Please taste test or display the inside when you do food videos lol I feel incomplete when RUclipsrs don’t do that 🥲
Thanks for the note!
The “Fries” option on my air fryer always ends up burning the fries- like what.
Im about to do this and I’ll tell you how it works out.
It turned out wonderful- I mostly came here just to figure out what time to set it on, but this is the first time in a while I had some actual good fries. Thank you!
I am so sad for all of your burnt fries! Glad that I could help 🙌
Do you defrost the fries or do you fry them from frozen
I love frozen fries and I buy the $1.68 bags from walmart. By chance does anybody know if an open bag of frozen fries can be stored for 4 days in fridge (not the freezer)? I'm asking in that my van has a small fridge i keep at like 30F so that can store salad , onions and green peppers for a week. I'd also like to keep otherwise frozen fries and vegan patties and hotdogs. I think it will be fine since veggies, but not sure.
Thanks for your video.
You are welcome!
When do you shake it?
Will this also apply to goya frozen tostones?
It should! Keep an eye, and if they look dry, spritz them with a bit of oil.
Appreciate the vid
its 3 am and i want crispy french fries lmao
Me, any time I'm still up at 3am lol
Thank you.
Do you have a pause function that you shake it at 5 min? Or do you just take it out shake and place back in while its cooking
Some of my air fryers pause automatically when you shake, and others don’t. Either way, you can just do the quick shake without pausing. It only takes a few seconds, so you don’t lose too much heat or time. You don’t have to even pull the basket all the way out to shake, just halfway. Just move the basket back and forth rapidly for a few seconds, then close it back and let it finish cooking.
I hope I’m explaining clearly! Lmk if you have more questions. I’m finding shaking harder to describe than it probably should be 😆
@@glueandglitter I think you explained shaking, lovely and perfect, my lady..
Thank you....I just got my fryer.
You are welcome! Very excited for you!
Do you recommend using oil when air frying the fries? I'm completely new to this whole thing
Nope, all you gotta do is just set them in there and enjoy 😉
@@El_Andyyy Thank you!
@@PeachSSGSS I was also up at your time trying to figure this out lol
@@PeachSSGSS Same I'm new to this air frying as well. I'm actually gonna whip up some crinkle cuts today which is why I clicked on this video. 😂 Good to know that I'm not alone. Of course, I don't mean that in a bad way but you know. Ahh, it's hard to explain. 😰😣
Homemade yes. Frozen no🙂
Ive seen a lot of people adding a tablespoon of oil In order to supposedly make them more crunchy and tasty , is that true ?
You definitely could, but I don't think it's necessary. For crunchier fries, do 12 minutes instead of 10. They're already deep fried before they're frozen.
Yes you have to add a tablespoon of oil if you are making from scratch at home.
For frozen fries you don't have to add oil because they are already fried for few minutes so they already have little amount of oil.
When you pull out the basket to shake the fries, do you turn off the machine, and then re-set it again?
Most machines will automatically pause cooking when you pull out the basket to shake. So no need to do anything else!
@@glueandglitter can you toast beef tvp ?
I noticed a lot of videos don't preheat the air fryer. Do I need to preheat or just press start?
I don’t preheat unless a recipe specifies. It heats up in just 3 min, so you can just tack a min or two on at the end if needed.
I can't believe Im actually watching a video showing me how to cook frozen chips ffs!
Haha yet here we are 😂
I’m just curious what’s the difference between fries cooked in air fryer vs. the oven?
Like I mentioned in the video, it takes half the time that it does in the oven. I also Find that they get a bit crispier in the AF.
Do you defrost the fries before you fry them or do you just fry them from frozen
Frozen
Giveing this a try thank you so much for the content.
Enjoy your fries!
Do you preheat the fryer first
D-op1 I never preheat. You can always tack on 1-3 min at the end, if needed, but the 10 min at 400 has always worked like a charm with no reheat. You may need more time with a fuller basket.
No oil needed ... amazing
Frozen fries are actually saturated in oil 😬. Don't need to add oil when you use the Oven either.
Just curious, what brand is your Air Fryer?
So the one in this video is actually discontinued. The one I have now is a Dash 6 quart. rstyle.me/cz-n/epsy5wc6vdf
You don’t let the fryer warm up to temp first before installing food ?
No need! Unless a recipe specifies a preheat, it’s not necessary.
Did you thaw those before seasoning?
These came seasoned, but I’d season after air frying, if you want to add anything
Hi friend that looks delicious 🌺🌺🌺👏👏👏👏👌👌👌👌👌
Thank you!
I'm going to make now. Thanks. I didn't know if I have to defrost them first.. no seasoning please
Sweet! Enjoy!
Did you spray the air fryer before adding fries?
No need! Don’t spray your nonstick basket with aerosol oil. It can cause the finish to chip over time.
Done watching kabayan shout-out new Friend
❤should you preheat?
No need!
Should you add oil of any kind to frozen fries ?.
You shouldn’t have to. Frozen fries are usually already deep fried, so you’re just reheating them, really.
Nice
DO I HAVE TO USE GREASE..AND IF SO HOW MUCH TO MAKE THEM CRISPY..
The frozen ones are already deep fried, so no need to add any oil to make them crispy.
Thank you so so much!☺
@@tammytsworld7462 You are welcome!
Were your fries right out of the freezer or did you thaw them before you cooked them?
Straight from the freezer!
How do you shake the air fryer? Do you remove the basket in half time and shake or shake the entire machine from time to time ?
You just move the basket (not the whole machine) vigorously back and forth to shake the food around inside. No need to fully remove it.
@@glueandglitter after how long should I loosen it and shake it for a 10 minute cook?
@@ayaan9646 it depends on how full the basket is. If you're only making a few servings, then one shake will be fine. If you're filling it more, then shake 2-3 times, so everything has a change to hit that hot, circulating air.
Best investment ever
Totally.
