How to cook frozen french fries in air fryer:

1. Place your frozen french fries in the bottom of your air fryer basket in an even layer. It's best to have one single layer of fries but if there are fries laying on one another, it's okay, you may just have to bake the batch a minute or two longer than you normally would.
2. Spray your french fries with cooking spray and sprinkle with your favorite seasonings and/or herbs.
3. Close up your air fryer and set it to 400*F. Cook your fries for 8 minutes, flip your fries in their air fryer basket, and cook again for another 8 minutes. Depending on your preference of crispness, you may want to cook your fries for another 1-2 minutes for a darker golden brown crisp. Enjoy!

I absolutely love my air fryer. No, I’m not getting paid to say this. I highly recommend you check out OMORC’s selection of air fryers.

I have the OMORC 6 Quart Air Fryer. You will find now a newer version of this Air Fryer.

It’s big enough to definitely feed a family of 4+. Some air fryers are so small that you can barely make enough of something to fill a coffee cup up with.

I love that the parts that need to be washed are dishwasher safe, so clean up is so incredibly easy! It’s a HUGE perk of this thing.

It’s got a pretty simple yet convenient touchscreen that allows you to not only easily set your temperature and time, but there are other functions like the “keep warm” button that can come in really handy.

How to store leftover french fries and tater tots:

You should store your leftover cooked air fryer french fries and air fryer tater tots in an airtight container or zippie bag in the fridge for up to 3 days.

How to reheat leftover french fries and tater tots:

To reheat your french fries or tater tots you can use the microwave for a softer french fry outcome, for 30-60 seconds depending on how hot your want your leftovers, or....

You can reheat your leftover fries and tots in the oven for a crispier reheat scenario. Preheat your oven to 350*F and cook your french fries and/or tater tots for 3-7 minutes depending on how hot you want your potatoes and how much you are reheating at one time.
