Air Fryer Jamaican Jerk Fries

I am yet to come across someone who does not love fries!! We all love fries, deep fried, oven-baked or air-fried!!

Air Fryer Jamaican Jerk Fries are an amazing skin on fries to munch on. These are perfectly crispy and golden on the outside, soft and tender from the inside.

I picked up jerk seasoning to make some jerk chicken and instead ended up making Jamaican Jerk Fries!! And these turned out super yummm and delicious.

Gone are the days I would deep fry chips or fries. Since the time I’ve got my hands on an Air Fryer, everything needs to be air fried. It is the only way even potatoes should be cooked. Of course air frying does require oil, but it is very little compared to the usual way of cooking or deep frying.

If you feel fries are unhealthy, air fry it my way!!

Whilst Air Fryers are perfect for cooking or roasting meat, chicken and frozen foods, they’re also great for making things like air fryer glazed chicken balls, air fryer chips, air fryer chicken meatballs and also air fryer hasselback potatoes.
