Turnip Fries Air Fryer

Air-fryer turnip fries are my healthy take on classic French fries! Roasted until golden brown all over, air fried turnips taste amazing dipped in sugar free ketchup or with a homemade mayonnaise.

Ingredients

  • 3 turnips 450g once peeled
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil avocado oil or coconut oil
  • ½ teaspoon paprika
  • ¼ black pepper
  • ⅓ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Peel and remove the ends of the turnips. Cut into slices then ½ inch fries. Make sure the fries are equal size so they cook evenly. If they release moisture, pat dry with a paper towel.
  2. Mix the olive oil, spices and seasoning together in a mixing bowl.
  3. Toss the fries in the mix so they are fully coated.
  4. Preheat the air fryer to 180C / 350F.
  5. Place the fries in one single layer in the air fryer basket and air fry for 8 minutes or until the tops are golden. Note - if your air fryer is small, you may need to cook 2 batches.
  6. Shake the basket or flip the fries and remove any small ones that may look cooked. Then, cook for a further 5 - 7 minutes or until evenly browned and cooked to your liking. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • 4g net carbs per portion. Makes 4 portions @ circa ½ cup each. 
  • If you have a round (smaller) air fryer, I recommend that you air fry in 2 batches. 
  • Best served immediately as the fries will soften as they cool.
  • No air fryer? Oven instructions are included in the post above. 
  • Reheat in the oven or for 5 minutes @ 200C / 400F or in the air fryer for 2-3 minutes. 
  • Optional flavour add-ons:
  • pinch of cayenne
  • Serve with my 5 minutes blender Keto mayonnaise or this super easy sugar free ketchup.
  • pinch of cayenne
  • ¼ teaspoon onion powder
  • ¼ teaspoon cumin
