Ingredients

For the Fully Loaded Air Fryer Kimchi Fries: 

  • 2 Russet potatoes, cut in french fries
  • 2 TBSP safflower oil
  • ½ TSP black pepper
  • 1 TSP salt
  • 1 TBSP garlic powder
  • 1 TSP dried parsley
  • ½ Cup Kimchi, chopped (or more to your liking)
  • Dairy free queso (recipe to follow below) or queso of your choice
  • Seaweed or furikake seasoning
  • Red thai chilies, sliced
  • Green onion, white and green parts, sliced

For the Dairy Free Queso:

  • 2 Cups So Delicious dairy free cheddar cheese
  • ½ Cup full oat oat milk
  • ½ TBSP nutritional yeast
  • ¼ TSP salt
  • Pinch of Cumin
  • Pinch of chili powder

Instructions

  1. Peel your potatoes, once peeled, wash and pat dry.
  2. Slice both ends off of a potato. Then, turn the potato, lengthwise, cut one thin end off so you have a flat surface.
  3. Flip the potato on the flat surface side and begin slicing lengthwise. Lay each slice on it on its side and slice into french fry sticks. Continue this process with your remaining two potatoes.
  4. Place all french fry sticks into a large bowl. Add all remaining ingredients: 2 TBSP olive oil, garlic powder, black pepper, salt and dried parsley. Mix well.
  5. Preheat your air fryer to 380 degrees. Once done, add as many french fries as you can without overcrowding. Air fry at 380 degrees for 30 minutes, turning them over at the halfway point. NOTE: When there are about 3 minutes left, shake and turn them again, I would suggest maybe on their sides so all parts get evenly cooked.
  6. While your fries are cooking, make the queso sauce. Heat a pot over medium heat and add your cheese. Continue to stir until the cheese has melted. Once melted whisk in your milk, nutritional yeast, salt, cumin and chili powder. Stir until well combined. When done, remove from heat and let cool down.
  7. Slice your green onion, set aside. Chop your kimchi, set aside.
  8. When fries are done, get ready to construct. Place them on your serving platter of choice. Pour over your queso cheese, top with chopped kimchi and garnish with green onions,  furikake seasoning and sesame seeds.
  9. ENJOY!
