Ingredients to make Air Fryer Sweet Potatoes

Sweet Potatoes- Sweet potatoes are sweet tasting tubers with brown skin bright colored flesh (orange, white purple etc).

I love orange ones but in India where I am living these days, white variety is available so I have used it in the recipe.

Also, I could not source organic Sweet potatoes here due to heavy rains so peeled it before using it.

You can eat whole sweet potatoes whole with skin or without skin also. Choose organic ones without not scars or any dirt.

Oil- Any Good Plant based Oil like Olive , Rice Barn.

Seasoning- Simple seasoning with salt and black pepper. We love to season our sweet potato bites/fries with chaat masala. You can choose any good seasoning of your choice.

Variations for Sweet Potato Seasoning and Dips

We love our Indian Chaat Masala for seasoning the fries and bites. Fresh bites and fries taste great even with simple salt and paprika seasoning.

Another Indian flavors which are a must try- Garam Masala and Curry Powder

Dried Mint and freshly ground Black Pepper with dash of Garlic powder.

Or try out the Italian or Mediterranean flavours to season the fresh bites.
