Chowder Fries
Crispy french fries smothered in a thick and creamy clam chowder. This is one hearty dish that will keep you warm when it's cold! I like to use my oil-less air fryer to cook French fries because they don't need as much oil as ones that are deep-fried and cook faster than fries baked in the oven.
Ingredients
- 4 large russet potatoes, washed and peeled
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- salt , to taste
- 1 can thick-style clam chowder
Instructions
- Slice potatoes into matchsticks about 1/4 inch thick. Dry the potato sticks thoroughly with paper towels. Place potatoes in a bowl and drizzle oil over the top of them. Toss the potatoes so they are evenly coated in the oil.
- Place the french fries in an oil-less fryer. Make sure you do not go over the max line. If you do, cook the fries in two batches.
- Cook the fries according to manufacturer's suggestions. For my fryer (see notes), it was recommended to use a setting of 360°F for 25 minutes. Remove potatoes when done. If they haven't crisped to your liking, you can always add a few more minutes.
- While the fries cook, heat the chowder and keep it warm until the fries are finished cooking.
- When the fries are done cooking, season them with salt. Place the fries on a large plate or in a bowl. Pour the hot clam chowder on top. Eat immediately.
Notes
I cooked the fries in a Rosewill RHAF-15001 oil-less low-fat air fryer, which I received complimentary for review. The air fryer uses rapid hot air circulation to evenly heat up and cook the food with less oil than other methods.
