California Farm Rotisserie French Fries

My handy little airfryer came with a rotisserie cage, never had one before, it rotates two portions of tall 7” french fries till they are all perfectly airfried on all sides in 40 minutes, no fat or oil frying needed.
When we were little, and helped our parents harvest the potatoes by hand, we were allowed to make a fire from the dried potato plant tops in the field and lay fresh potatoes in the ashes to roast and eat with our fingers. A delicacy!
This rotisserie cage gives french fries that same roasted flavor, I dont peel the potatoes when I handmake french fries and can assure you they have the same special taste.

I teach people at the farmers market to grow small scale fruits and vegetables. My grandparents and parents taught me growing, cooking and preserving home grown fruits and vegetables, eggs, meats and fish. I got certified by the University of California Master Gardener Program in 2005. I try to bring out the original flavor of ingredients, then add layers of spices, herbs and flavorings that enhance, not distort the taste. These are the global, organic and vegan family recipes we use.
