Air Fryer Pizza Fries
Description
This recipe starts with peeled potatoes cut into thick fries, tossed in extra virgin olive oil with oregano, salt, and black pepper. The fries cook in the air fryer at 160°C (320°F) for 15 minutes to reach tenderness with a crisp surface. After a shake to redistribute, the fries are topped with grated cheese and thin slices of chorizo, then returned to the air fryer at a higher temperature to melt the cheese and slightly crisp the toppings.
The resulting fries have a balance of a crispy exterior and tender interior warmed by the melted, flavorful cheese and savory chorizo. Oregano seasonings contribute a classic pizza flavor profile that enhances the dish’s appeal. The method relies on two cooking stages in the air fryer to ensure fries are cooked thoroughly before adding the toppings.
Serving the pizza fries with a favorite pizza dipping sauce adds moisture and complements the toppings. The recipe encourages choice in cheese and additional toppings, adapting to preferred pizza flavors. The dish works well for casual snacks or appetizers.
