Followed your instructions and my fries came out PERFECT!!!!! I think soaking them in hot water is definitely the golden rule!!!!
Just used my Air Fryer for the first time today (which I bought last Christmas..) and used your method for the chips. They came out amazing! So glad I chose to watch your video. Thank you so much.
Just made these just added smoked paprika and cooked them for 20 minutes -amazing both crispy outside and soft inside -👍👍👍
Followed your instructions to the letter. Best chips ever!! Thanks so much for sharing.
Your method is amazing. I just watch and went ahead to make myself some french chips. It worked.
Thanks for the helpful video.
Absolutely loved all of it.
Really appreciate your narrative afterwards.
Showing the crispness of the fries and you sharing what you experienced trying different methods.
Appreciate ya.
Ah, the holy grail of frying. Perfect Chips! Great video, thank you for posting.
I put oil on my chips but not as much and I don’t remove the crisper plate or soak them in hot water so definitely trying this. I always par boil potatoes for roasting and I do cook them in oil without the crisper plate and they’re lovely, totally like potatoes roasted in the oven. ❤
I just tried this method, they came out perfectly, thank you!
Hallelujah for crispy fries! Thanks for the tutorial, very helpful :)
Tried so many ways for Chips.
So Easy.
Definitely will try.
Thank you
What a beast thank you so much I haven't gotten exactly how you got em but close enough perfect video I highly recommend this thank you so much
Just acquired an air fryer and watched several people's chip demonstrations, which have done nothing to convince me that they are delicious! But all thanks to yourself I'm enthusiastic at last to start... this is what I've been waiting for!
Great to hear!
You sir are legend. Followed your instructions and they came out perfect. As good any deep fat fried chip ive ever had😊
Thanks 😎 awesome to hear.
Thank you for sharing this, worked wonders
Great ASMR sounds at the end !
Excellent video Leigh. Been making air fryer chips & thought they were ok but i tried your method and they were greatly improved using the boiling water for 5-10 minutes. .I think that you couldn't improve on that result at all. and your style & presentation is top notch . Also your recipes look very appealing so keep up the good work & i look forward to future videos.👍🏻
First airfryer use and tutorial and my chips came out perfect👌 ..thank 🧒
Almost sold my fryer and the little detailed things you mention help me understand the difference and while watching I got it right for the first time. Now we understand the airfrying better and already know what we going to do with the chicken. We in Cape town go with this technique. Perfectly help amongst all the other we have watched. Thank you
That's great to hear. It's a handy tool worth having. What else are you going to make?
Will try a small pizza and pie next
Nice one Leigh. Thank you.
Looks like a good method. Chips looked great. Time will tell. Doing some tonight. Incidentally, it's good to see movie superstars like Charlie Hunnam getting involved with CZcams. You were great as Raymond.
That crunch sounds divine 😂
They look lovely. Can't wait to try them.
Hope you enjoy
Nice results, will try this method 👍👍
Thank you very much, I need to do chips and chicken for tomorrow so this will be useful x
Heard the crunch, that'll do for me - air-fryer is on it's way.!
They look good!
I have a cosori with the press handle that removes the inner basket.So i took the 3 screws out to leave me with the handle.Pressed the handle into the outer basket so i had a solid bottom.Best chips ever THANKS 👍
Aunt Bessie’s frozen chips from Lidl. Comes with oil impregnated, out of packet into air fryer, no buggering about, 15 mins @ 180 C, delicious and with a piece of fish and mushy peas (if you are from the north).
Having said the above, Great video if you want to do it the old fashioned way !!
For a lazy bum like you, by all means hop to it!
Very Nice. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for this🙏
hi Leigh just found your channel as i was looking for air fryer chips/fries, and subbed you amazing content such clear and easy to follow instructions keep up the amazing work dude looking forward to trying some more of your air fryer recipies. thanks for sharing from clive in uk.
Awesome! Thank you Clive!

My pleasure 😊
They look amazing Leigh👌🏻
I got a Ninja for Christmas and I will definitely try your recipe!
Thank you for sharing and Happy New Year🍻
Thanks. Enjoy the Ninja!
It’s great!
Skin on, bone in chicken thighs are my favourite so far but I’ve got lots of recipes to try 👍🏻
These are top notch mate.
Excellent. I'm sick of tough chips so went looking for the proper technique. Yours looks like what I've been looking for, so I'm trying that tonight. Hopefully I've seen the last of hard, tough chips. Thank you 🙏🫶
We're they good? I'm st the starch part rn
And? How did it work out for you?
Your spot on 👌🏴🏴
This reminds me of the time when we switched from 3 gas rings to an induction hob, the time we changed our car from gear stick to automatic, or when we moved over from PC to IPAD, everything is different at first but you gain the most benefit when you embrace the new. It’s the same with air fryers, all of them pretty much do the same thing in the same way, but the automatic pre set functions vary wildly in temperatures & timings, this is what catches most people out, by all means use them when convenient, but be prepared to experiment with manual adjustments, Leigh’s process is spot on I agree with the hot water, & oiling, however I found starting at a slightly lower temperature & raising it for the last 5 minutes works best for me. Like a lot of people I was initially sceptical about these machines, but after having one for several months now we use it every other day, it’s compact, lightweight, stores in a cupboard under the hob, my only regret is not allowing my husband to buy a two basket version as it was quite expensive, I now realise that you can put a small chicken in one basket, potatoes & veg in the other & set to have both finish at the same time, if you can afford it go for this option, these fryers also use dramatically less energy than your conventional oven under a hob.
Thanks for the comment. A lot of good points. Like everything there is trial and error, everyone is different and in different conditions and ingredients. I wish I'd bought a bigger one too. Something to consider later in the year.
Lol what, not at all the same, none of the stuff you said.
@@user-wq9mw2xz3j It's true. Two baskets are often better.
Whaw looks pretty nice
Tried this recipe and my god I'm hooked 😂❤ thank you.
Glad you liked it!!
Much better channels for this!
I just made these and they are amazing for home made fries.
Great to hear they turned out so well.
I’ve only soaked the chips in cold water for 30 minutes prior to cooking, I am going to give your method a try and see if it makes a difference - I would imagine it does because of the part cooking especially if left for the upper recommended time of 10mins 😊
Best potatoe chips I’ve seen ❤
Thank you!
Spot on.
Just cooked your quarter pounder with chips amazing m8
Brilliant thank you I will be trying this tomorrow as I just went to tescos and the cheapest chips have gone from 98p to £1.85 they are not getting that out of me when I can buy half sack of spuds for a fiver 😂
You were making me hungry, and next time share your chips with me .. thanks for the video..!!
Perfect!!
Doing now over and over and perfect
I'll also try this recipe
Wow, thanks
I'll try this.
Tnx for your vid, I’m gonna try it out this week. (Last week of Jan ‘24
First thing I thought was how can you compare McDonalds (fries) with air fryer (chips). Then I thought McDonalds (fries) are actually quite tasty when they are hot. Air fryer chips are surly going to be better cooked, tastier, and more filling. Thanks for the video.
Thanks mate ❤
Aw finally a recipie for air fryer that actually when done.. deserves to be called a CHIP ! 😂 a wee bit too much talking at the end but thanks so much for tips and I've subscribed for this reason.much ❤
Just followed your recipe Leigh - absolutely deliciou; I am a convert. 😁❤️😁
Amazing to hear this!!
I will try it tomorrow
This is now my go to way of cooking chips in the air fryer. Thank you!
Well done, nice looking chips.
Thanks 👍
Ooh Sir tasty recipe thanks a lot.
Good looking chips got yourself a sub👌👍
Good one mate, not as deep fat fried but very decent. Thanks for sharing
Thank yooooo!!!
Any particular oil needed ? what oils wouldn’t work ?
This recipe came out like u said and truly exceeded my expectations. My chips/ fries were SOFT and slightly crispy, but most importantly, there were cooked!
Glad you liked it!!
Great video, great method, nice and crispy. Sadly, as with all chips done in any oven, the chips are still "dry" rather than moist like they could out of a traditional fryer. Oh well, best I've come across so far :)
I will try this method
Tried this twice in 2 different air fryers and it didnt work. They came out cooked but they weren't crispy on the outside and were patchy brown like a leopard. Any idea what is going wrong?
I started using an air fryer 2 days ago and your french fries recipe is the one I followed. They were amazing. They didn't look as pretty as yours 😅, but the results were awesome. Thanks for the details.
Hi Leigh, at what point could I freeze these? I'm trying to make homemade freezer chips. Thanks
I've tried chips on the airfryer before but I didn't think that they were proper chips. Will try this one and see. Cheers 👍
Is there a difference between red, white, and russet potatoes? Or do they all taste the same when making fries?
Nice one thx
Looks really great! 👍
24 Mins @200C is that also the correct setting when you fry more fries in one batch??🤔🤔
Added recipe to my Air Fryer File, now to find the perfect fish in batter to go with them
What's the difference between red and brown potatoes and does the chips taste any different?
Hmm will try this. What about putting some salt on before the oil 🤔
From raw spuds or frozen prefried?
So the big question is, what variety of potato did you use for these chips? I have the Ninja Foodie Mini air fryer and over the past two years have tried several times to make chips from fresh potatoes. The results have been variable. All the chips were edible, many were great, but never did I achieve that certain something that marks out a truly excellent chip. I've experimented with timings and temperatures. I've poured boiling water over the chips and waited 5 minutes. The only thing I haven't tried is switching to a potato variety not tried before. For example, I've not tried red potatoes, nor King Edwards. Russet potatoes are often said to be the best for chips, but I've not seen Russets in any supermarket. Supermarkets seem to sell the ubiquitous Maris Piper potatoes or Maris Peer, or they sell "white potatoes" without declaring the variety. I have got very good results from Cornish new potatoes. An absolute chip cooking zenith would be freshly fried chips in a Belgian roadside chippy.
Mine were done after 12 mins when I went to toss them half way through. Surely another 12 mins would have burnt them?
Crunchy 😊
Didn’t work for me with my Ninja AF, but then I used a silicone basket protector.
Will try with out next time
Nice 👏
Blinding chips, thanks mate 👍
No problem 👍
Just tried this Fries recipe with my steak & was very pleased with them.👌
*P.s i added a few drops of Vinegar in with salt for more flavour.
Look great, can't wait to try this method. There's nothing worse than chips that look at taste like cardboard. Great video, thank you.
100% agree
Ha, I prefer Burger King Chips to Mac Donald's.....they are a better size & crispier.....Still a great video......
Just been watching Dave Myers chip video, he does them the same but soaks them in cold water and salt, he says the salt draws more starch out. I have a twin drawer fryer, I'll try your and his and see what happens.. Cheers.
UPDATE: I've just done both versions but used Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Funny thing was Dave Myers cooked first by about 3 minutes, left your version until they looked the same, both tasted exactly the same, next door neighbour said the same thing, bang on mate.
Just fry your chips if you're fully covering your potato in oil. The best airfryer is the Tefal Actifry because it constantly rotates without all the faffing. Add oven cook chips, et voila! Perfect crispy chips.
Not salt water?
Do u take the tray out of airfryer?
Try McCains oven chips cooked in a deep-fat fryer,,,,,,SUPERB!!!
I think its very important to use the right kind of potato .I don't know of "Rooster" potatoes.
I must be the only person on the planet who doesn't like the inside soft and fluffy. I prefer it firm, not hard but definitely firm and I can only achieve this in a deep fat fryer.
Does the type of potato matter? I followed the instructions using Russet and while they came out better than before but they were far from what's in the video. I am not sure what I'm doing wrong.
maris pipers!
Love the sound of your own voice Jesus Christ it’s a chip calm down 😂
For crispy fries use corn starch, period the end.
watched this am,followed your recipe at tea time, and my wordthey were as near perfect than you can get them, didnt think we would get chips that were as good as chipshop chips and all with lessfat
This is so cool to know, glad it worked for you.
