Main Ingredients- 2 handfuls frozen french fries (approx. 200-250g)
- 1 knob of butter (adjust size as needed)
- Pinch of salt
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, let’s prepare the delicious butter garlic sauce. In a bowl, combine 3 tablespoons of mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon of honey mustard, 1 tablespoon of minced garlic, and 1 tablespoon of honey. Mix them well until smooth.
Step 2
To add richness and a vibrant color to the sauce, prepare your processed cheese slice. Using cheddar cheese will give you a color similar to store-bought fries. For easier melting, finely chop the cheese slice with scissors.
Step 3
Add the chopped cheese to the sauce mixture. Microwave for 30 seconds and check if the cheese has melted. If not, microwave for another 30 seconds. A total of 1 minute should be sufficient for the cheese to melt completely.
Step 4
Once the cheese has melted, the sauce will become wonderfully creamy and smooth. Gradually add 2-3 tablespoons of milk, a little at a time, until you reach your desired consistency. If it’s too thick, add more milk; if it’s too thin, stir a bit more.
Step 5
Now it’s time to cook the fries! Frozen fries often lack seasoning, so lightly sprinkle with salt if desired. A light drizzle of cooking oil will also help them crisp up beautifully. Arrange the frozen fries in a single layer in your air fryer basket.
Step 6
Preheat your air fryer to 200°C (400°F) and cook the fries for 15 minutes. For even crisping, it’s a good idea to shake the basket halfway through the cooking time.
Step 7
Transfer the perfectly crisped fries to a serving platter. Sprinkle generously with grated Parmesan cheese for an extra layer of savory flavor.
Step 8
Finally, drizzle your homemade butter garlic sauce generously over the fries. Garnish with a sprinkle of parsley flakes. Your delicious butter garlic fries are ready to be enjoyed! Savor the delightful crunch and rich sauce combination.
