Ingredients
  

  • 500 g frozen sweet potato fries 

Chili Jam Dipping Sauce (optional)

  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 ½ tbsp Thai-style tomato chili jam

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your air fryer similar to how you would preheat your oven. Many air fryers come with a preheat button, but if yours doesn't, set it to 180°C (360°F) and let it preheat for about 5 minutes.
  • Once the air fryer is heated, place your frozen sweet potato fries in the basket, ensuring they are not overcrowded. Make sure they are arranged in a single layer without overlapping. If your air fryer basket is not spacious enough, you may need to cook them in two batches.
  • Air fry the sweet potato fries for 9 minutes, then shake the basket. Continue cooking for an additional 8 to 10 minutes until they turn golden and crispy. For extra crispiness, you can extend the cooking time by a few more minutes if desired.
  • Remove the air-fried sweet potato fries from the basket and place them on a serving plate. Serve them alongside your favorite dip as a snack or as a side dish to complement dishes like Lamb Beyti Kebab, Thai Fish Cakes (Tod Mun Pla), or Homemade Koftas.

Preparing the Chili Jam Dipping Sauce 

  • Place 1 cup of mayonnaise into a bowl and stir in 1 ½ tablespoons of homemade Thai Style Tomato Chili Jam. 
  • Stir well until nicely incorporated and transfer it into a small serving bowl.

Notes

  • This recipe uses medium-cut fries, so you may need to adjust the cooking time based on the thickness of your fries.
  • Do not thaw the frozen sweet potato fries; cook them while they are still frozen!
  • Preheat your air fryer similar to how you would preheat your oven before cooking the frozen sweet potatoes.
  • Arrange the sweet potatoes in the air fryer basket in a single layer to prevent overlapping.
  • If you prefer your sweet potato fries extra crispy, cook them for a few additional minutes beyond the instructions provided.
