AIR FRYER LOADED GREEK FRIES

Air-fried french fries loaded with Greek flavors. These are great on their own but also pair nicely with lamb, steak, or chicken. Cheese is a must for loaded fries but since feta doesn't melt, I incorporated it into the tzatziki sauce.

Ingredients

½ English cucumber, shredded
½ teaspoon salt
½ (16 ounce) container Greek yogurt (such as Fage®)
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 teaspoons freeze-dried dill
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
½ (4 ounce) package crumbled feta cheese
4 medium russet potatoes, peeled and cut into fries
2 teaspoons olive oil
2 teaspoons Greek seasoning (such as Cavender's®)
cooking spray
1 small red onion, cut into thin strips
¼ cup sliced Kalamata olives
12 grape tomatoes, halved

Steps:

Place shredded cucumber in a colander and sprinkle with salt. Let drain for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, assemble the rest of the tzatziki by adding yogurt, lemon juice, dill, garlic, vinegar, and feta to a small bowl. Stir until evenly combined. Stir in shredded cucumber and set aside until ready to use.
Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Combine fries, olive oil, and Greek seasoning in a large bowl and stir until evenly combined. Spray the basket of the air fryer with nonstick cooking spray. Add 1/2 of the fries to the basket.
Air fry for 10 minutes. Flip until cook to desired crispness, about 5 minutes more. Repeat with remaining fries.
Divide fries among 4 serving plates. Drizzle cucumber sauce over the top of the fries. Garnish each plate with red onion strips, Kalamata olives, and grape tomatoes.

Tips:

Use a variety of vegetables to make your fries more colorful and nutritious. Some good options include zucchini, carrots, bell peppers, and mushrooms.
Cut your vegetables into uniform sizes so that they cook evenly.
Be sure to coat your vegetables in a thin layer of oil before air frying. This will help them to crisp up and prevent them from sticking to the basket.
Air fry your vegetables in a single layer so that they cook evenly. If you overcrowd the basket, the vegetables will not cook properly.
Shake the basket halfway through the cooking time to ensure that the vegetables cook evenly.
Season your vegetables with your favorite herbs and spices before serving.
