Problem
Possible cause
Solution
The pan still contains
greasy residues from
previous use.
White smoke is caused by grease
heating up in the pan. Make sure
you clean the pan properly after
each use.
Fresh potato fries
are fried unevenly
in the air fryer.
You did not soak the potato
sticks properly before you
fried them.
Soak the potato sticks in a bowl of
water for at least 30 minutes; take
them out and dry them with kitchen
paper.
You did not use the right
potato type.
Use fresh potatoes and make sure
they stay firm during frying.
Fresh potato fries
are not crispy
when they come
out of the air fryer.
The crispiness of the fries
depends on the amount of oil
and water in the fries.
Make sure you dry the potato sticks
properly before you coat them with oil.
Cut the potato into thinner sticks for
a crispier result.
Add slightly more oil for a crispier
result.
