Ninja Foodi Sweet Potato Fries
Description
This recipe calls for peeling and slicing sweet potatoes into fries, then tossing them with avocado oil and a spice blend including paprika and garlic powder. Coating the fries evenly ensures a balanced flavor and crispness. Cooking is done in the Ninja Foodi air fryer setting, beginning at 160°C (320°F) for 20 minutes, then increasing to 200°C (400°F) for an additional 5 minutes after shaking the basket to promote even browning.
The result is fries with a golden, crispy surface and a tender inside, suitable for serving with preferred dipping sauces. The recipe notes recommend using avocado oil but mention olive oil as an alternative, and indicate the cook time suffices even if doubling the sweet potatoes.
This preparation makes a practical and flavorful side dish or snack, balancing sweetness with savory and smoky notes from paprika and garlic, while the air fryer method keeps the fries less oily than deep-frying.

Ninja Foodi Sweet Potato Fries Ingredients:
- 600 g sweet potato
- 2 Tsp avocado oil
- 1 Tsp paprika
- 1 Tsp garlic powder
- salt
- black pepper
Instructions
- Grab your sweet potatoes and peel and slice into sweet potato fries.

- Place the air fryer lid on the Ninja Foodi, press the air fryer button twice, until it registers 200c and then move the temperature down to read 160c/320f. Set the time to 20 minutes and press start. When it beeps, give the air fryer basket a shake and then cook for a further 5 minutes at 200c/400f.
- Load your sweet potato fries onto plates and serve with your favourite dipping sauce.
Notes
- Avocado oil is preferred for coating the fries, but extra virgin olive oil can be substituted.
- Doubling the quantity of sweet potatoes is possible without increasing cook time.
- Shake the air fryer basket halfway through cooking for even crisping.
