Air Fryer Courgette Fries
Monday, June 20, 2022
If you are trying to reduce carbs but are craving fries, give these a try. They are great as an alternative side dish or simply as a snack.
These are a new favourite in the Eating Ideas household. They are easy to make and super tasty (lets face it, anything with cheese is going to taste good!)
You can season them with whatever takes your fancy. I like this combination but just add your favourite flavours.
The recipe is below.
Ingredients
- 1 courgette
- 1 tbsp gram/ chickpea flour
- 1/2 tbsp grated parmesan
- 1/4 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/4 tsp cumin
- 1/4 tsp salt
- Pinch of ground black pepper
- Spray oil (I use a good quality rapeseed oil)
Instructions
- Cut the courgette into fries.
- Combine the gram/ chickpea flour, Parmesan cheese, smoked paprika, cumin, salt & pepper in a shallow dish and mix together.
- Place cut courgette fries in a bowl and spray with oil.
- Dip fries into the Parmesan mixture, making sure all sides are well coated.
- Preheat air fryer to 400F / 200C.
- Working in batches, place fries in a single layer inside the air fryer basket. Happily the @instantpotuk Vortex has 2 drawers so you can cook twice as many at once.
- Cook for 8-10 minutes or until golden and crispy.
- Remove from the air fryer and serve.
