Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat your air fryer to 320°F (160°C). (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a large bowl, toss the yam fries with olive oil and Sriracha salt until evenly coated. (2 minutes)

03

Step

Arrange the fries in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring not to overcrowd. You may need to cook in batches. (2 minutes)

04

Step

Air fry for 16 minutes. Then, increase the temperature to 400°F (200°C), shake the basket, and cook for another 5 minutes, or until the fries are golden brown and crispy. (21 minutes)

05

Step

While the fries are cooking, prepare the dipping sauce by whisking together sour cream and Sriracha sauce in a small bowl. Adjust the amount of Sriracha to your preference. (3 minutes)

06

Step

Serve the hot, crispy yam fries immediately with the cool Sour Cream Sriracha sauce for dipping.

For extra crispy fries, soak the yam fries in cold water for 30 minutes before cooking. Pat them completely dry before tossing with oil and seasoning.
Don't overcrowd the air fryer basket; cook in batches for even cooking and maximum crispness.
Adjust the amount of Sriracha in both the fries and the sauce to suit your spice tolerance.
