First HeatingTimer DialNo temperature setting / 12min
After 6 minutes, pause the timer and swap the items’ positions—top and bottom. Remove any items that have started to burn. For items that are still cold or hard in the center but haven’t burned, resume the timer for the remaining time. Remove any items that are hot and soft all the way through.
Instructions for preheating, mid-cooking checks, and how to check for doneness are included in the preparation instructions.
No knife, parboiling, or marinating is required. Remove from the freezer just before cooking, and keep the food frozen until right before cooking.
Check Before Cooking
Fit the crisper plate with its raised side facing up while the appliance is cold. Do not preheat or set a temperature.
Use store-bought shoestring potatoes that have been pre-coated in oil and are suitable for cooking in an oven or air fryer. The thickness should be 8mm or less. Do not substitute them with thick-cut, breaded, or raw potatoes. Be sure to check the cooking instructions specified on the product packaging.
Cook the entire amount listed in the ingredients section in a single batch. Ensure the food is spread out without overlapping on the inner rack or plate and that it does not exceed the MAX line. If it does not fit, do not start the cycle; instead, refer to the official instructions for your specific model to select a method that suits your quantity and arrangement. Do not adjust cooking times based on weight or volume ratios.
Stay beside the air fryer during cooking and keep the intake and exhaust vents clear. If there is smoke, a burning smell or anything abnormal, stop heating and discontinue use according to the manual.
Instructions
01
Measure the amount while it's still frozen
Check the cooking method on the product label and weigh the listed amount of fries while frozen. Lightly coat them with 3g of rice bran oil in a bowl. Keep the salt for finishing.

02
Prepare the main unit
Fit the crisper plate with its raised side facing up while the appliance is cold. Do not preheat or set a temperature.
Spread the potatoes in a single layer on the inner rack or crisper plate. Do not use paper or foil, and do not block the ventilation holes. If the entire amount does not fit, do not start cooking. Check the official instructions for the same model for a method matching the amount and placement.

04
Cook, turning and rearranging partway through
Turn the timer dial to the initial heating setting to begin. When the specified time has elapsed, turn the dial back to 0 to stop the timer, and place the basket on a trivet. Flip the items over and remove any that have started to burn. Of the items that are still cold or hard in the center but haven’t burned, return only those that haven’t burned, and set the remaining time by subtracting the actual cooking time. Simply removing the basket will not stop the timer.
Check to see if it's hot all the way to the center
Stop heating, remove several of the thickest fries, and split them with a fork on a plate. Check that they are hot and soft throughout, without cold or hard centers. Do not judge doneness by surface color alone. If they are not ready, follow the doneness guidance below.
Once you’ve checked that the center is cooked through, transfer it to a clean plate and sprinkle with 0.5g of salt if needed. Do not add salt if the food is already salted. Leave the lid off and eat once it reaches a safe eating temperature.
Remove several thick pieces, cut them open, and check that they are hot and tender all the way to the center, with no cold or hard centers. Do not judge based on surface color alone. If the center is cold or hard, do not serve it; instead, check the cooking instructions for the product to confirm the proper procedure for the same model, quantity, and thickness. If no appropriate method is available, do not repeatedly add time without a basis, and do not eat it.
Add the fries while frozen. Rinsing, soaking and microwave thawing are unnecessary. Do not use these settings for fries with large clumps of ice or fries that have thawed and stuck together.
Should I add some oil?
Lightly coat the oil-processed frozen fries with 3g of rice bran oil. Avoid pools of oil. This recipe is not a no-added-oil or fat-free recipe.
How many minutes and at what temperature can I make it?
Select your appliance model and use its listed initial heating settings. Do not assume the fries are done when the initial time ends; check the center during cooking and at the end.
What if the fries are soggy or unevenly browned?
Check for any overlapping pieces or ice chunks, and rotate the potatoes and flip them over halfway through cooking. Once done, transfer them immediately to a plate; do not cover them while hot to prevent them from steaming. Do not simply extend the cooking time while leaving a large batch in the air fryer.

200g of frozen shoestring potatoes; set the timer for 12〜14 minutes. Do not adjust the temperature.
Independently designed details and unverified points
I used the single-serving portion and the initial 12-minute setting specified in the instructions, and independently adjusted the oil and salt amounts, as well as the food arrangement and checks at the 6-minute mark.
