Wash and peel the potatoes.

Cut the potatoes into evenly sized fries or wedges.

Soak the potatoes in cold water for about 30 minutes to remove excess starch.

Drain and pat the potatoes dry with a paper towel.

Toss the potatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper (if desired).

Preheat the air fryer to 380°F (193°C).

Place the potatoes in the air fryer basket in a single layer, ensuring they are not overcrowded.

Cook for about 20-25 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until the fries are golden brown and crispy.

Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
