WW CARROT FRIES

Ingredients:

  • 4 large carrots, peeled and cut into thin strips (similar to the size of traditional French fries)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish, optional)
  • Dipping sauce of your choice (e.g., ketchup, ranch, or aioli)

Instructions:

  1. **Preheat the Air Fryer:**Preheat your air fryer to 380°F (190°C) for about 5 minutes.
  2. **Prepare the Carrot Fries:**Peel the carrots and cut them into thin strips, similar in size to traditional French fries. It’s essential to make the carrot strips as uniform as possible for even cooking.
  3. **Season the Carrot Fries:**In a mixing bowl, combine the carrot fries, olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat the carrot fries evenly with the seasoning mixture.
  4. **Air Fry the Carrot Fries:**Place the seasoned carrot fries in the air fryer basket in a single layer, ensuring they are not overcrowded. You may need to cook them in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
    Air fry the carrot fries at 380°F (190°C) for 15-20 minutes, shaking the basket or tossing the fries halfway through to ensure even cooking.
    Cook until the carrot fries are golden brown and crispy.
  5. **Serve:**Remove the carrot fries from the air fryer and transfer them to a serving plate.
    Optionally, garnish with chopped fresh parsley for added color and flavor.
    Serve the carrot fries hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
