I love to grab Arby’s curly fries from the freezer section and make them with sandwiches or as a simple side. The air fryer is the BEST way to make air fryer frozen curly fries. We have other fries you can make if you’re french fry lovers like we are. Other frozen fries you can make are regular frozen air fryer french fries, steak fries, and frozen air fryer sweet potato fries. One of the biggest challenges of making frozen fries in the oven or the microwave is that they would end up as soggy curly fries. Once I started making these in the air fryer, all of that changed. We now have much better results and always have crispy air fryer french fries to serve. They’re also an easy side dish to make! How does the air fryer make these fries perfect and crispy? The heating element uses high heat and the hot air circulation makes the cooking process quick and easy and with no need for an oven or a deep fryer with hot oil.

Note: This recipe was made with a basket style 5.8 qt Cosori air fryer. If you’re using a different brand of air fryer model (ie. one with racks) you may need to adjust and decrease the cooking time by a minute or two. Other brands may require you to add an additional minute or two. It’s always best to make a small test batch of a recipe if you’re using a different brand of air fryer.

How to Air Fry Frozen French Fries
When air frying frozen french fries, it’s always important to keep the frozen fries in a single layer and allow a little space between each fry. This allows the hot air to circulate and for the fries to crisp and evenly cook throughout the air fryer. I love these air fryer frozen curly fries, and I bet your family will, too.
